Benchmarks: 3DMark2001, Quake III Arena

3DMark2001 SE Source: FutureMark

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.

3DMark2001SE Benchmark Results
AMD (FSB/Memory) 3DMarks Ranking
1. 2x 512MB OCZ EL PC4200 (200/400 MHz) 17749
2. 2x 512MB OCZ EL PC4200 (214/428 MHz) 18270

Intel (FSB/Memory)

1. 2x 512MB OCZ EL PC4200 (200/400 MHz) 15970
2. 2x 512MB OCZ EL PC4200 (271/542 MHz) 19534

With the processor running at approximately the same speed we see about a 500 point increase on the AMD system. With the processor running 800 MHz higher we see that the Intel system is almost able to score 20k with no videocard overclock. Not too bad at all!

Quake III Arena

Source: ID Software

Quake III Arena is a First Person Shooter (FPS) that revolutionized gaming as we know it. Using multiple light sources and having graphics textures that can fill videocards, even after 3 years it's still able to bring a cutting edge system to its knees.

2. 2x 512MB OCZ EL PC4200 (271/542 MHz) 148.8

As we saw in 3DMark2001, the AMD system gets a slight performance boost due to the higher FSB. The Intel system on the other hand gets a substantial boost!
