Benchmarks: AquaMark3, Quake III Arena

AquaMark3 Source: Massive Development

AquaMark3 is a powerful tool to determine reliable information about the gaming performance of a computer system. Because the benchmark extensively utilizes DirectX9, DirectX8 and DirectX7 functionality, it represents the requirements of typical gaming applications in 2003 and 2004.

1. Pentium 4 3.2C 5700
2. AthlonXP 3200+ 5685

3. Athlon64 3200+ 44918
4. Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz) 45488

While the overall scores are very close among all the systems we do see that the Athlon64 3200+/K8T Neo has more processor power then the competition.

Quake III Arena

Quake III Arena is a First Person Shooter (FPS) that revolutionized gaming as we know it. Using multiple light sources and having graphics textures that can fill videocards, even after 3 years it's still able to bring a cutting edge system to its knees.
