Performance: Speed

Since the systems reviewed are based on one and the same chipset, i845GE, their performance is about the same. The diagrams below show the systems’ performance in the major benchmarks with the integrated graphics core and the external graphics card used.

Here are the office tests and digital content creation tests:

The systems performed equally fast, so we wouldn’t single out any leaders here.

Now check streaming data processing benchmarks:

It is evident that the most efficient memory subsystem belongs to Soltek EQ2000M, which allows it to show the best results in these benchmarks. However, we still wouldn’t call it an indisputable leadership.
