Benchmarks: 3Dmark 2001, QIII Arena

3DMark2001 SE Source: MadOnion

3DMark2001 SE is the latest installment in the 3DMark series by MadOnion. By combining DirectX8 support with completely new graphics, it continues to provide good overall system benchmarks. 3DMark2001 SE has been created in cooperation with the major 3D accelerator and processor manufacturers to provide a reliable set of diagnostic tools. The suite demonstrates 3D gaming performance by using real-world gaming technology to test a system's true performance abilities. Tests include: DirectX8 Vertex Shaders, Pixel Shaders and Point Sprites, DOT3 and Environment Mapped Bump Mapping, support for Full Scene Anti-aliasing and Texture Compression and two game tests using Ipion real-time physics. Higher 3DMark scores denote better performance.

Motherboard (FSB/Memory) 3DMarks Ranking
1.

RDRAM - 100 MHz FSB

10054
2

RDRAM - 112 MHz FSB

10647

As we can see, we're just break 10k in 3DMark but upping the FSB does help quite a bit! Remember the processor is also running about 200 MHz faster as well.

Quake III Arena

Source: ID Software

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.

Quake III just can't get enough of the RDRAM/P4 combo. Like in 3DMark2001SE, a little FSB boost goes a long way in terms of performance!
