See my Home Assembled PC Specs for COMPLETE System details. I have purchased each component separately
(shopped around for best prices/deals first), and then assembled my computer entirely from ground up.
All benchmark results below were obtained using these hardware
settings:
CPU Clock Speed: 1.4 GHz = 13 CPU x 112 MHz
FSB
SDRAM Memory Clock Speed: 112 MHz [5 ns] = CAS 3
Primary
Video Chipset Clock Speed: 300 MHz
Primary Video Memory Clock Speed: 650
MHz
Primary Video V-Sync: OFF
Secondary Video Chipset Clock Speed: 100
MHz
Secondary Video Memory Clock Speed: 100 MHz
Secondary Video V-Sync: OFF
Primary Video Controller 2D+3D = AGPx2 with Fast Writes enabled
Secondary
Video Controller 3D = PCI
Testing accuracy:
Both Hard Disks were
fully defragmented using the Windows 98 SE Defrag tool with the "Rearrange program files so my programs
start faster" option enabled.
The Registry was checked for errors and fully compacted using the Windows 98 SE
native MS-DOS mode Scanreg tool: SCANREG /FIX
Posted results are the average of 3 test runs
under identical conditions: clean boot with NO Win32 TSRs or programs running.
