3D Rendering

3dsmax 5.1

WorldBench includes two 3dsmax benchmarks using version 5.1 of the popular 3D rendering and animation package: a DirectX and an OpenGL benchmark.

Discreet 3ds Max 5.1 (DirectX)

Discreet 3ds Max 5.1 (OpenGL)

3dsmax 6

For the next 3dsmax test we used version 6 of the program and ran the SPECapc rendering tests to truly stress these CPUs. Since there's not much new to report here we're only going to report the Rendering Composite score. For more details feel free to read our Athlon 64 FX-55 Review where we analyze the performance data in much greater depth.

    Considering that Dell of all companies is playing the "Well, were starting to have second thoughts" game, I think its just a matter of time MAME.

    After all, it wasn't long ago that people thought AMD was going bankrupt and being bought by Intel now was it?

    The ACDSee info is from the A64 FX-55 and 4000+ review, I believe.

    The 1ghz FSB seems delightfully useless. Maybe this was an attempt to get more people using the 925X chipset?

    while AMD looks quite attractive in comparison, Intel does not have to worry about AMD for a long long time. AMD is unknown to almost the entire "average joe" market. Even if AMD had finally broke through to Dell and large businesses effectively, they simply can't produce enough chips for Intel to be effected

    Ahhhhh AMD just keeps looking better and better. :)

    I WILL have a nForce 4 and AMD .90nm purring in my machine before Christmas. Half Life 2 will be pure utter buttery smoothness baby.

    At this rate Intel are really going to lose favour in the eyes of....well everyone. If AMD can capitalise on this - get some aggressive marketing out they might finally be able to remove the underdog tag from there name.
    Just educate the masses AMD - MAKE AMD THE HOUSEHOLD NAME then nothing will stop you.

    neo means new in Latin anyways, so no biggie. ;)

    Jeez, another "so what?" release from Intel.

    I hope these guys can get it together enough to continue to remain competitive with AMD.

    Neo = New lol

    "We can only wonder what Intel is thinking."

    Yes, canceling Tejas and 1.2 FSB and releasing crappy chipsets. Neo CEO = New Death for a company.

    AMD you can take another sigh of relief.
