PCMark05
is a premium tool for measuring both normal home use and simple 3D performance
of the latest PC hardware. There are 11 system tests - each one is designed to
represent a certain type of PC usage. By running these tests, PCMark05 stresses
the components in a similar manner as they are stressed in normal home
usage.

The Overall PCMark05 score favors the Intel based
system, however the specific tests for CPU and Memory illustrate the socket AM2
AMD-based motherboards and nForce 590 SLI chipsets offer a lot potential.
3DMark05
is best suited for the latest generation of DirectX9.0 graphics cards. It is the
first benchmark to require a DirectX9.0 compliant hardware with support for
Pixel Shaders 2.0 or higher! By combining high quality 3D tests, CPU tests,
feature tests, image quality tools, and much more, 3DMark05 is a premium
benchmark for evaluating the latest generation of gaming hardware.

3DMark05 is a videocard benchmark and as we can see the
system results are all very close. The results are not the same in the CPU
portion of the test, and so we find the Asus M2N32SLI-DLX performs on par with
its nForce 590 SLI competition. Very nice. Up next, gaming benchmark results
from 3DMark 06, Farcry and others.
