AMD Athlon XP 2800+ - Introducing the first 333MHz FSB Athlon XP

Content Creation Performance

We're still delving deeper into the performance issues behind SYSMark 2002 but in the meantime we will continue to provide performance numbers from the benchmark as well as other similar benchmarks to compare/contrast with. Keep in mind that the real-world tasks SYSMark 2002 runs are known to be noticeably faster on the Pentium 4 platform which is why even the fastest Athlon XP cannot reach the performance of a 2GHz Pentium 4.

Content Creation Winstone 2002 is another Content Creation benchmark that focuses on performance under applications like Adobe Photoshop, Premier and Macromedia Dreamweaver. This benchmark is much more I/O bound than its SYSMark 2002 counterpart, although the results are very similar:
