Sciencemark, Super Pi & DOOM 3

ScienceMark 2.0 Final:

Science Mark 2.0 is an attempt to put the truth behind benchmarking. In an attempt to model real world demands and performance, ScienceMark 2.0 is a suite of high-performance benchmarks that realistically stress system performance without architectural bias. All of our testing was completed on the 32 Bit Final benchmark version that is dated March 21st 2005.

Super Talent Sciencemark Results

Results: In Sciencemark 2 the Corsair 2GB PC2-6400C3 memory kit came in first place yet again!

Super PI Mod v1.4:

Super PI is a program a lot of enthusiasts use to benchmark overall system performance, as the program is capable of calculating pi up to 33.55 million digits on a timer. Many overclockers and enthusiasts are in a battle to get the lowest 1M Super Pi time possible.

Super Talent Memory Review

Results: Super Pi Mod v1.4 shows improved performance when the timings get tigher. The original PC2-6400 modules from Corsair were rated at 5-5-5-12 and came in 2 seconds slower as a result. Thanks to the super tight 3-4-3-9-2T timings they were able to beat out all of the other modules tested.

DOOM 3:

Super Talent Memory Review

Results: When it comes to memory timings nothing loves to show performance differences like some first person shooters. Doom 3 is a great benchmark to use as their usually is not a load on either the GPU or CPU, so memory timings play an important role. For this benchmark we ran a clean install of Doom 3 and didn’t edit any of the graphics settings. Here we see why gamers love low latency memory. Moving from a CAS Latency of 5 to 3 resulted in an additional nine frames per second during benchmarking, which is a significant difference.
