 Benchmarks: PCMark2002, PCMark04
 PCMark 
can be used on desktop PC's, Laptops and even Workstations and tests everyday 
computing from home to office usage. PCMark specifically stresses the CPU, 
memory subsystem, graphics subsystem, hard drives, WindowsXP GUI (if WinXP is 
used), video performance and even laptop batteries.  
 In 
PCMark2002 the numbers at stock speeds are pretty close throughout. The memory 
portion of the benchmark illustrates that 925X based motherboards score higher 
at stock. 
 PCMark04 
is the latest version of the popular PCMark series. PCMark04 is an 
application-based benchmark and a premium tool for measuring overall PC 
performance. It uses portions of real applications instead of including very 
large applications or using specifically created code. This allows PCMark04 to 
be a smaller installation as well as to report very accurate results.

    | Albatron PX915G 
      Pro (i915G, 244/406) | 5800 |    |  You should see the pattern by now. At stock speeds all 
motherboards perform roughly the same because they are using the same CPU. When 
the PX915G is overclocked nothing can catch it.
