Abbiamo modificato radicalmente la nostra suite di programmi benchmark per le prove. Ora ci affidiamo maggiormente ai benchmark basati su applicazioni reali. Ovviamente usiamo le ultimissime versioni dei programmi. Tra i benchmark più “stressanti” per le macchine c'è Nuendo 2.0 di Steinberg: lo usiamo con un file di progetto audio da più di 2 GB calcolato con una scheda audio di fascia alta (Aureon 7.1 Space di Terratec) con frequenza di campionamento di 96 KH a 32 bit. Il processore più veloce, il Pentium 4 di Intel, ce la fa in meno di tre minuti!
Nel caso di Mathematica 5.0 abbiamo inserito una formula ultra complessa che l'Athlon 64 FX ha risolto in soli 5,7 secondi! Tutti già conoscerete i tre programmi di rendering professionale 3D Studio Max 5.1 (presto disponibile in versione 6), Cinema 4D XL 8.1 e Lightwave 7.5c (presto disponibile in versione 8).
