Gaming Applications
Nothing unexpected happens here, either. However, I have to stress that Core 2 Duo E6550 processor very often outpaces Core 2 Duo E6600 here. It means that 1333MHz bus appears more important for 3D games than additional 67MHz of clock speed.
Besides a few real games we have also included the results of a benchmark based on Valve Source engine that will be used for future games. It estimates the system performance during the calculation of environmental gaming physics.
We have also included the chess benchmark based on a well-known Fritz 9 engine into this gaming test session.
