We fire off two threads at the processor and observe how it deals with more every day tasks such as searching for contacts. So only two cores are really used in this test, but it's a strong MS office application often used...

Microsoft Office contact searching... again a tie in performance here.

Webpage Rendering

This is a multi-threaded test we stole from PCMark Vantage, we have the PC render as many webpages (fixed) as possible. The end results are the number of webpages created per second. A small win for the 7750 BE.

3DMark 06 CPU test

Well, everybody loves 3DMark06, and nowadays, it's CPU limited, making it an excellent application to check CPU performance. The scores that you see obviously are the CPU test itself, not overall 3DMark06 scores.

But enough synthetic tests. let's focus on real-world gaming for a minute.
