SIS Xabre 600 Review (2)
Overclocker 26 Nov 2002

Benchmarking

We conduct the a number of tests on the setup with the following configuration :

Test System:

AMD XP2400+
ABIT KD7-RAID DDR333 Async mode CAS 2, 2-2-5
Corsair 512MB XMS3200 DDR400 module
SiS Xabre 600
Chaintech GF4 MX440 64MB with Detonator 40.41
Maxtor D740X-6L ATA133 7200RPM
AOPEN 40X CDROM
Channelwell 375W AMD Approved PSU

Madonion 3DMark2001SE Build 330 and Overclocking

Benchmarking and overclocking is easy with the help of the software 3DWizard which comes with the CDROM. When we first launch the application, it shows that RAM and Core are "Defaulted" to 315 Mhz. When we clicked on the DEFAULT, it becomes 310/310. The ram on board is a 2.8ns, thus there is a chance of reaching above 350mhz (ram), Unfortunately, the 3Dwizard max is 350, We benchmark all our tests based on this default and also overclocked it to 335/350. The ram speed is maxed out. I tried shifting the core speed upwards to 340 artifacts start appearing.

Observing the results, the Xabre600 is definitely a good challenger to the GF4 MX440. When we overclock it, the results shot up by another 300 points reaching 8742. 28.4% difference is recorded between the two cards (default timings).
