Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHz-C 800MHz FSB Processor Review
Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHz-C 800MHz FSB Processor Review - PCSTATS
The P4 3.2C, like the other 'C-class' processors, runs on a 800 MHz FSB Northword core.

Benchmarks: SuperPi, POVray

SuperPI Source: SuperPI

SuperPI calculates the number PI to 1 Million digits in this raw number crunching benchmark. The benchmark is fairly diverse and allows the user to change the number of digits of PI that can be calculated from 16 Thousand to 32 Million. The benchmark, which uses 19 iterations in the test, is set 1 Million digits.

Lower numbers denote faster calculation times (seconds), and hence, better performance.

Super PI (1 Million digits) Benchmark Results (Lower is better)
Processor Seconds Ranking
1. Athlon64 3200+ 43
2. AthlonXP 3200+ 44
3. Pentium 4 3.2C 45

Pentium 4 processors have traditionally done poorly in SuperPi due to their weak FPU. Still, the P4 3.2C is only two seconds slower then the Athlon64 3200+ which is very good!

POVRay Source: POVRay.org

The Persistence of Vision Ray Tracer (POV-Ray) is an all round excellent package, but there are two things that particularly make it stand out above the rest of the crowd. Firstly, it's free, and secondly, the source is distributed so you can compile it on virtually any platform.

Lower numbers denote faster calculation times (seconds), and hence, better performance.

POVRay Benchmark Results (lower is better)
Processor Seconds Ranking
1. Athlon64 3200+ 145
2. AthlonXP 3200+ 144
3. Pentium 4 3.2C 179

POVRay which is a pure FPU benchmark does quite poorly on the P4 3.2C.
