Benchmarks II

You should know the order of benchmarks by now. Next is DVD-to-DivX encoding. DivX4.12 with a 2-pass encoding of Gone in 60 seconds. An average is calculated when the first VOB is complete.

The SOYO's performance is as expected in this memory-dependant task. With the impressive showing in Pifast, we knew that it might do well in this benchmark.

On to the Ocuk SETI benchmark.

The SOYO is relegated to last place this time, albeit marginally behind the SiS648 motherboard. The bandwidth is obviously there, it's just a little perplexing why the SOYO P4X400 DRAGON cannot repeat its Pifast results.
