Performance
Socket 478 systems based around Pentium 4 processors are leaving the top-end sector of the market, so we shouldn’t expect any revelations from the following tests.
We put the following components into our E-bot:
- Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHz (Northwood core)
- 2x512MB OCZ PC4200
- The cooler included with the barebone
And here are the results we got:
Benchmark | FSB 200MHz | FSB 212MHz |
Sisoft Sandra 2005, RAM Buffered Bandwidth | 2744 | 2990 |
3Dmark 2001SE,Default | 1777 | 1860 |
PCmark04, Default | 3717 | 3917 |
WinRAR , KB/sec | 237 | 257 |
SuperPI 4M, sec | 258 | 238 |
Quake 3 Arena (four) | 43.5 | 48.7 |
Doom 3, Medium quality,1024x768 | 2.3 | 2.6 |
Unreal Tournament 2004 Demo, 1024x768 | 12.8 | 14.47 |
The demo of Doom 3 looked weird enough, just like a slideshow. The system we’ve assembled in the E-bot is almost twice slower than top-end computers of today.
