Cinebench2003

Cinebench 2003 multithreaded raytracing was one of the prime examples for the performance increase using Hyperthreading. We still think it is an ok benchmark, though.

Higher is better. Interestingly, there is a more or less pronounced difference between the results we got with the two different motherboards used for testing

Open GL performance

OpenGL performance in Cinebench2003 highly depends on memory bandwidth and access latencies

Higher is better: The results with the Foxconn and the Intel motherboards were identical.
