Sysmark 2004 Internet Content Creation Suite

For the record, here are the specific applications that make the ICC and Office Productivity suites, respectively:

       

3D Content Creation, 2D Content Creation and Web Publication.

Office Productivity

       

Communication, Document Creation and Data Analysis

Interesting here is the rather substantial lead over any other CPU in the commmunication benchmark, which, at a second glance is not that surprising since communication inclucdes heavy data transfer and, by extension, utilization of system memory. We ran Sysmark2004 three times with the exact same results, therefore we cannot view this as a runaway result, rather, it appears to reflect some impact of the memory bandwidth and especially latencies on the outcome of this particular benchmark.
