SiS 746FX Reference Board Review (3a)
Overclocker 8 Jan 2002

Benchmarking

Memory Benchmarks (fsb:166, AXP2700+)

SiSoft Sandra 2002

The infamous SiSoft Sandra 2002 is used to test out the memory benchmarks, CPU Arithmetic and Multimedia benchmarks. All the systems are tweak to it's maximum possible settings of CAS 2, 2-2-5.

All boards running in SYNC DDR333 (166/166) otherwise specified. The FSB of the various boards are :

SiS 746FX Ref board : 168.2Mhz
EPoX 8RDA+ : 167.05Mhz
ABIT KD7 : 166.88Mhz

In SiSoft Memory benchmarks, we can see from here that the SiS 746FX when running at Asyn c DDR400 mode, the benchmarks is still 60 points away from the nForce2 running in Dual Channel DDR333 mode. As we can also see from the chart, the KD7 falls behind the SIS 746FX if the SIS746FX is running in Async mode.

In the CPU Multimedia tests, the SiS 746FX seems to be better in ALU performance than in FPU.

It is likewise in the CPU Arithmetic tests, the ALU performance seems to be better and the SiS 746FX isn't that bad after all in FPU scores in this test.
