Benchmarks: SiSoft Sandra, Super Pi

SiSoft Sandra 2005 Source: Sandra

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 processor numbers are good, however memory numbers are lower than we expected. Odd as the memory is running faster than on the Intel-chipset based systems.

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.

SuperPi
1 Million Digits: Seconds Ranking
Foxconn 955X7AA-8EKRS2 (955X 200/533) 39
Foxconn 945P7AA-8EKRS2 (945P 200/533) 41
Epox 5NVA+ SLI (NF4 SLI 200/667) 41
MSI P4N Diamond (NF4 SLI 200/667) 39

The MSI P4N Diamond is one quick motherboard. In SuperPi we fine it tied with the Foxconn 955X board for calculation time of just 39 seconds.
