SiS1.09 AGP driver
The following tests are run at least 3 times to
obtain a sustain score. MSI 845E Max2 is set to run at the best timings of CAS
2, DDR266, 2-2-5. DFI NB73-EA is set to run at 2-2-5.
The ASUS P4S533 is tested under two environments.
1)
Best timings at CAS 2, 1T, DDR333, 2-2-2-4 RAM timings to reach the best speed.
(async timing)
2) Turbo timings at CAS 2.5, 2T, DDR266, 3-3-3-6 RAM timings. (sync timing)
All
above setup are set to operate with an AGP aperture size of 128MB so that
consistent results can be used for comparison purposes.
