#486 Benchmark rendertest
Why would this happen?
I did a benchmark on 3 systems.
486-25Mhz Intel 486DX2-66Mhz Intel 486DX2-80Mhz AMD
I ran the following renders with these results. All were from frame zero
single renders to the screen except Plasma which was frame 25.
80Mhz 66Mhz 25Mhz
57Chevy 1:40 1:53 3:41 Birdshow 1:38
1:51 3:43 Chopper :39 :42
1:25 OldCity3 :30 :34 1:06
Here is where it gets different. I purchased the Plasma IPAS and ran
Plasma2 :18 :14 :27 Spheres :57
:45 2:08
And then this is back to what I would expect.
Water5 3:38 3:47 7:50
Spheres is just a bunch of spheres I made up of different sizes, colors,
textures, and bump maps.
I believe that Water5 is also from the IPAS I bought.
Can anyone explain why the 66Mhz would be faster on two tests than the 80 Mhz?
I am trying to decide which to purchase. I cannot afford a Pentium at this
time.
Thanks,
Dennis
