MSI 875P Neo Review - PAGE 5

Benchmarks & Conclusions

We ran a series of benchmarks on the following system:

• Intel 3.0 Gig C-Stepping Processor

• 2 X 256 3200 Corsair XMS DDR

• Diamond Max 40 Gig 7200 Hard Drive

• ATI Radeon 9700 Video card

• Plextor 40x12x40 CDRW

• Stock HSF

We also included benchmarks running the Neo in using 2 x 256 2700 RAM

Office productivity:

Memory Bandwidth

Here the Neo takes the lead, though the Intel dual channel is close behind.

Multimedia Benchmark

Here things are a lot closer all around, with the Neo 400 scoring highest on the Integer but lower on the floating point.

CPU Benchmark

On the Dhrystone the Neo 400 steals the show, and though it lacks a little in the Whetstone it's not huge.
