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.
Bandwidth
scores with the TwinX 1024-3200XL Pro
DDR are very nice indeed! Both AMD and Intel test systems get a healthy boost
due to overclocking!
PCMark04 is the latest version of the popular
PCMark series. PCMark04 is an application-based benchmark and a premium tool for
measuring overall PC performance. It uses portions of real applications instead
of including very large applications or using specifically created code. This
allows PCMark04 to be a smaller installation as well as to report very accurate
results.
The
performance differences recorded in PCMark04 are similar to the ones in PCMark2002.
