Benchmarks: Office Productivity, SiSoft Sandra, Super Pi

Business Winstone 2004 runs real applications through a series of scripted activities and uses the time a PC takes to complete these activities to produce its performance scores.

Content Creation Winstone 2004 is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running top, Windows-based, 32-bit, content creation applications in Windows XP.

AOpen Mini PC MP945-VX (945GM 166/667) 25.9

Performance of the AOpen Mini PC945-VX is quite poor in the Office Productivity tests, and that is a surprise. The benchmark was rerun three times with similar results, it's possible that it's the WindowsXP Media Center Edition that's causing the problems. The other systems were all benchmarked with WindowsXP SP2 running.

Sandra is designed to test the theoretical power of a complete system as well as the individual components. The results are also purely theoretical and may not represent real world performance.

The AOpen Mini PC MP945-VX is using a dual core mobile processor while the other two systems are using a Pentium M 740, that's why the processor numbers are so much higher. Memory bandwidth is slightly higher than with the other systems, not a surprise, the memory is running faster.

Super Pi Source: SuperPI

SuperPI calculates the number PI to 1 Million digits in this raw number crunching benchmark. The program allows the user to change the number of digits of PI that can be calculated from 16 thousand to 32 million. Our benchmark is set to 1 Million digits and 19 iterations.

The AOpen Mini PC MP945-VX does very well in Super Pi! It is able to complete the test 23 seconds faster than the previous Aopen mini PC system! This is in the same territory as high powered Athlon64 processors.
