* - At 133 MHz FSB we were using the 3/4 memory
divider which means memory was running 354 MHz and was using 2-2-2-5 memory
timings.
** - At 150 MHz FSB with the 3/4 memory divider
enabled, memory was running 400 MHz and was using 2.5-3-3-6 timings.

Sandra is designed to
test the theoretical power of a complete system and individual components. The
numbers taken though are again, purely theoretical and may not represent real
world performance. Higher numbers represent better performance.

Sandra does not care very much about memory timings, that's why the bandwidth is
about what we'd expect from memory running at 200 MHz FSB.
PCMark is a new benchmark from our pals at MadOnion
which a whole system benchmark. It 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. This benchmark was released March 12, 2002 and can be downloaded from
Madonion if you would like to give it a test run on your computer for
comparisons sake...

With the AMD
based system, it's
no surprise that the stock performance is all the same at stock speeds. Pentium
4 based systems have always had more bandwidth then AMD that's
why the Intel numbers are so high relatively speaking.
