AMD Athlon64 3200+ 32/64-bit Processor Review
AMD Athlon64 3200+ 32/64-bit Processor Review  - PCSTATS
Tired of being an "Intel clone," AMD's goal became to set market trends, instead of just following the lead of chipzilla.

Benchmarks: PCMark 2002, 3DMark2001SE

PCMark 2002 Source: FutureMark

PCMark 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.

4. Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz) 8923

PCMark has always loved SSE2 in the Pentium 4 and I'm a bit puzzled at why the Athlon64 3200+'s processor bench is so low. Despite running single channel, the Athlon64 3200+ does very well in the memory portion of PCMark. Looks like there are benefits to having the memory controller integrated.

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.

Processor 3DMarks Ranking
1. Pentium 4 3.2C 18305
2. AthlonXP 3200+ 18057
3. Athlon64 3200+ 20322
4. Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz) 20916

Wow the Athlon64 3200+ is able to break the 20k barrier with the system completely stock! That's amazing!
