Benchmarks: 3DMark2001, 3DMark05

3DMark2001SE Source: FutureMark

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.

Since the Corsair TwinX2048-4000PT is not able to run tight timings at 200 MHz, it is beaten by all the other memory at stock speeds. Overclocking does little in this benchmark since the processor is clocked at approximately the same speed.

3DMark05 Source: FutureMark

3DMark05 is the latest version of the highly favoured 3DMark graphics benchmarking series. It is the first benchmark to require DirectX®9.0 compliant hardware with support for Pixel Shader 2.0 or higher.

3DMark05 is very much a videocard benchmark, so the overall score does not change much with the system at stock or overclocked settings. The system gets a decent boost in the CPU portion of the test which is due to the increased memory bandwidth
