3DMark 2001
3DMark 2001 - DirectX 8



Notes
Despite giving up roughly a gigabyte of bandwidth to 1066MHz RDRAM, the DDR400-based SiS 648 testing system comes out on top in 3DMark 2001SE. The margin is ultra slim though, less than 1% at all resolutions. When equipped with DDR333 memory performance drops off three percentage points at 1024x768x32, but it still offers enough performance to outrun Intel’s 850E chipset when paired with PC800 RDRAM.
SiS’ claims of improved performance over SiS 645DX also hold true, although we found the margin was only around one percentage point in 3DMark 2001SE.
