By combining DirectX8 support with completely new graphics, 3DMark 2001 SE continues to provide a good overall system benchmark. 3DMark2001 SE was created in co-operation with the major 3D accelerator and processor manufacturers to provide a reliable set of diagnostic tools. The suite demonstrates 3D gaming performance by using real-world gaming technology to test a system's true abilities. Tests include: DirectX8 Vertex Shaders, Pixel Shaders and Point Sprites, DOT3 and Environment Mapped Bump Mapping, support for Full Scene Anti-aliasing and Texture Compression and two game tests using Ipion real-time physics. Higher 3DMark scores denote better performance.

It's surprising to see the onboard videocard performs a little worse than ATi's RS480 onboard video. When a stand alone GeForce 7800GTX is used, power is definitely there, and the little board scores as fast its nForce4 cousins. The Intel results are from a slower overall system, but are shown for reference.

In 3DMark05, the Foxconn WinFast 6150K8MA-8EKRS's onboard video scores higher than ATI's Radeon Xpress 200 IGP. Slap in a GeForce 7800GTX and you get awesome performance!
