Benchmarks: SiSoft Sandra, Super Pi

SiSoft Sandra 2005 Source: Sandra

Sandra is designed to test the theoretical power of a complete system as well as the individual components. The results are also purely theoretical and may not represent real world performance.

The processor numbers are in line with what we'd expect, and memory bandwidth is higher than the other Socket 754 boards which is a good thing.

Super Pi Source: SuperPI

SuperPI calculates the number PI to 1 Million digits in this raw number crunching benchmark. The program allows the user to change the number of digits of PI that can be calculated from 16 thousand to 32 million. Our benchmark is set to 1 Million digits and 19 iterations.

Super Pi times for the Socket 754 systems are all the same which is no surprise considering they are all using the same processor.
