Benchmarking

ZD Content Creation 2002

Content Creation Winstone is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running top, Windows-based, 32-bit, content creation applications on Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows XP. Content Creation Winstone 2002 uses the following applications:

  • Adobe Photoshop 6.0.1
  • Adobe Premiere 6.0
  • Macromedia Director 8.5
  • Macromedia Dreamweaver UltraDev 4
  • Microsoft Windows Media Encoder 7.01.00.3055
  • Netscape Navigator 6/6.01
  • Sonic Foundry Sound Forge 5.0c (build 184)

Following the lead of real users, Content Creation Winstone 2002 keeps multiple applications open at once and switches among those applications. Content Creation Winstone 2002 is a single large test that runs the above applications through a series of scripted activities and returns a single score. Those activities focus on what we call "hot spots," periods of activity that make your PC really work--the times where you're likely to see an hourglass or a progress bar.

It can be easily seen from here the power of 845GE and 845PE chipset against the SiS 648 board. It is consistent that the Intel 845GE and Intel 845PE boards performs 2.5% faster than it's SiS counterpart. If we were to look at our previous shootout results, it seems that the 845PE and 845GE is coming closer to the RIMM4200 ASUS solution P4T533 that scored 40.7 and Intel's D850EDM2 (i850E) which scored  41.7 for CCWS2002 category. The only odd one out is the Shuttle SB51G which scores 38.7 in this category.
