Intel Pentium D 840 Review - PAGE 3
William Henning - Friday, January 27th, 2006

Business Benchmarks

Disclaimer: the non-840 results were obtained with a different video card and driver; however the results should still be largely comparable as the 6600GT was an excellent 2D performer.

Winstone 2004

This benchmark may be an 'Oldie' but I consider it to be a 'Goodie'.

Unfortunately the 840 did not fare that well on this test. At its default settings, it beat the 820 by almost 10%, however an Athlon 3800x2 at default settings beat the 840 by almost 10%. The single core P4 670 handily beat the 840 at stock settings, and slightly at overclocked settings.

Content Creation 2004

The 840 fared somewhat better with Content Creation, however the single core 670 still beats the stock 840, and the overclocked 3800x2 dominates this chart.
