MP3, DVD, Kribi, Raytracing
MP3 encoding has always favoured sheer clock speed. Nothing really changes here.
The test here was to encode the first VOB of American History X using a bitrate of 1000kb/s. Benchmark mode was limited to the first 5,000 frames and no sound was encoded. DivX Pro 5.05 was used. Black borders were cropped too. A Pentium 4 benefit. The better memory efficiency of the DigiDice sees it take first spot.
KribiBench is an easy-to-use benchmark from Adept Development. It's a software (read subsystem) renderer that's capable of rendering amazingly complex scenes. The benchmark can be downloaded from here and features models with 16.7 billion polygons. The test is the rather easier JetShadow model with the realistic setting. Pretty tasty from ABIT's multipurpose DigiDice.
Raytracing shows the DigiDice nudging ahead of the SB65G2 again, although it is far, far behind the pace-setting SN85G4.
