Processor Tests
Our processor tests stress CPU-bound performance on the test systems using CPU-based image rendering and MP3 encoding tools.LAME MP3 Encoding
Measured using the RazorLAME front-end to LAME's encoding engine, the measured time for the album encode fell just the wrong side of the 169s mark for the KLOSS to join the other two systems with that score. LAME is 100% CPU-bound (except in certain mis-configured situations) so it's a score to expect.
Kribibench v1.1
Kribibench renders shaded 3D models entirely using your CPU.
Kribibench is less impressed with the KLOSS as the other tests have been so far, posting a result that leaves the i875P systems some 7% faster. Kribibench is sensitive to memory timings, especially related to main memory access, so we attribute the result to that.
Realstorm 2004
Realstorm 2004 is a real-time 3D renderer that shows you moving 3D scenes with advanced effects, rendered entirely on your CPU, bypassing any dedicated 3D hardware in your system.
The i875P systems are nearly a couple of percent faster than the i915G-equipped KLOSS, to be expected given the differences in the memory configurations of each system.
