AMD Athlon64 4000+ Socket 939 Processor Review
AMD Athlon64 4000+ Socket 939 Processor Review - PCSTATS
The Athlon 64 4000+ is not clocked faster than its nearest predecessor, but that doesn't preclude it from obtaining a healthy boost in the benchmarks thanks to 1MB L2 Cache.

Benchmarks: Winstone 2002, Sandra 2004

Winstone 2002 Source: Zdnet

Business Winstone 2002 is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running today's top-selling Windows-based 32-bit applications on Windows 98, Windows 2000 (SP6 or later), Windows Me, or Windows XP. Business Winstone doesn't mimic what these packages do; it 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.

Content Creation Winstone 2002 is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running top, Windows-based, 32-bit, content creation applications on Windows 98, Windows 2000 , Windows Me, or Windows XP.

Winstone 2002 - Benchmark Results
Business Winstone 2002: Points Ranking
Pentium 4 540 (3.2 GHz) 38.2
Athlon64 3800+ 45.7
Athlon64 4000+ (NF3) 48.2
Athlon64 4000+ (VIA) 47.6
Athlon64 4000+ @ 2.72 GHz (VIA) 49.3
Content Creation 2002: Points Ranking
Pentium 4 540 (3.2 GHz) 53.4
Athlon64 3800+ 59.4
Athlon64 4000+ (NF3) 60.8
Athlon64 4000+ (VIA) 60.3
Athlon64 4000+ @ 2.72 GHz (VIA) 62.8

There are more or less similar results for all the Athlon 64 processors in these tests, which all outperform the Intel Pentium 4 540. As seen in the Sysmark 2004 benchmark, you can only boost Content Creation benchmarks so much with the CPU.

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.

This benchmark, though not measuring any kind of real world performance, can give us an idea of how the two competing chipsets for the Athlon 64 compare. Note that the nForce 3 platform seems to get the best out of the 4000+ CPU, but lags behind in the memory bandwidth tests. This could be what hurts it in some of the other benchmarks, as we will see.
