PCMark05 is a premium tool for measuring both normal home use and simple 3D performance of the latest PC hardware. There are 11 system tests - each one is designed to represent a certain type of PC usage. By running these tests, PCMark05 stresses the components in a similar manner as they are stressed in normal home usage.

PCMark05:
Overall Points Ranking
Foxconn 975X7AA-8EKRS2H (975X 200/667) 8276
Foxconn C51XEM2AA (NF 590 SLI 200/800) 6707
Asus M2N32SLI-DLX (NF 590 SLI 200/800) 6496
CPU Points Ranking
Foxconn 975X7AA-8EKRS2H (975X 200/667) 5313
Foxconn C51XEM2AA (NF 590 SLI 200/800) 5729
Asus M2N32SLI-DLX (NF 590 SLI 200/800) 5716

Asus M2N32SLI-DLX (NF 590 SLI 200/800) 5072

The Overall PCMark05 score favors the Intel based system, however the specific tests for CPU and Memory illustrate the socket AM2 AMD-based motherboards and nForce 590 SLI chipsets offer a lot potential.

3DMark05 is best suited for the latest generation of DirectX9.0 graphics cards. It is the first benchmark to require a DirectX9.0 compliant hardware with support for Pixel Shaders 2.0 or higher! By combining high quality 3D tests, CPU tests, feature tests, image quality tools, and much more, 3DMark05 is a premium benchmark for evaluating the latest generation of gaming hardware.

3DMark05
Overall: Points Ranking
Foxconn 975X7AA-8EKRS2H (975X 200/667) 7700
Foxconn C51XEM2AA (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX Single) 7943
Foxconn C51XEM2AA (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX SLI) 13419
Asus M2N32SLI-DLX (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX Single) 7975
Asus M2N32SLI-DLX (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX SLI) 13342
CPU: Points Ranking
Foxconn 975X7AA-8EKRS2H (975X 200/667) 6225
Foxconn C51XEM2AA (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX Single) 7663
Foxconn C51XEM2AA (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX SLI) 7523
Asus M2N32SLI-DLX (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX Single) 7533
Asus M2N32SLI-DLX (NF 590 SLI 200/800 GeForce 7800GTX SLI) 7338

3DMark05 is a videocard benchmark and as we can see the system results are all very close. The results are not the same in the CPU portion of the test, and so we find the Asus M2N32SLI-DLX performs on par with its nForce 590 SLI competition. Very nice. Up next, gaming benchmark results from 3DMark 06, Farcry and others.
