It's common knowledge that the P4 doesn't do well in current office based benchmarks and SysMark simply slaps the P4 around. Overclocking seems to help out a little, but it doesn't really make these scores seem respectable. Intel states that once office applications have optimization for SSE2, things will change, but I think that's a terrible reason personally.

Content Creation Winstone 2001 keeps multiple applications open at once and switches among those applications. Content Creation Winstone 2001's activities focus on what we call "hot spots," periods of activity that make your PC really work--the times where you're likely to see an hourglass or a progress bar.

Business Winstone is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running today's Windows-based 32-bit applications on Windows 98 ME, Windows NT 4.0 (SP6 or later), Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows XP which runs real applications through a series of scripted activities and uses the time a PC takes to complete those activities to produce its performance scores.

Winstone 2001 Benchmark Results
	Shuttle AV45GTR	Scores	Ranking
1.	Content Creation - 100 MHz	54.7
1a.	Content Creation - 109 MHz	59.2
2.	Business Winstone - 100 MHz	37.9
2a.	Business Winstone - 109 MHz	38.7

Again, those are some of the worst numbers we've seen in the last little while. It's not the fault of the AV45GTR, the P4's performance in anything sub 1.7 GHz is rather lousy because of it's relatively low IPC (Instructions Per Clock).

WinBench 99 is a subsystem-level benchmark that measures the performance of a PC's graphics, disk, and video subsystems in a Windows environment. WinBench 99's tests can run on Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows Me systems.

The trend continues. We had to use a Maxtor 10GB DiamondMax HDD to benchmark because our reference 30GB IBM died earlier in the week. That's why the disk benchmarks are so low. As for the graphics benchmark, it seems that the VIA P4X266A chipset is still immature. Newer motherboard drivers should fix that. Notice the very nice boost when the system is overclocked.
