High End Workstation Performance - SPEC Viewperf 7.0

The latest version of SPEC Viewperf proves to be an excellent stress test for memory bandwidth and overall platform performance as you're about to see. The benchmarks included version 7 of the benchmark suite are:

3ds max (3dsmax-01)
Unigraphics (ugs-01)
Pro/Engineer (proe-01)
DesignReview (drv-08)
Data Explorer (dx-07)
Lightscape (light-05)

For more information on the tests run visit SPEC's page on the new Viewperf benchmark.

We're quite skeptical of the viewperf results not only because they don't agree with any of our other numbers from this review but mainly because the 3ds max test does not agree with our real-world 3ds max tests from earlier in this review. We've included the numbers anyways for your own use and interpretation:
