SiSoft CPU
Right from the get go the IC7-G is putting up some very impressive numbers. Even at 3GHz the BH7 cannot compete with the new 3.0C version CPU coupled with the Intel 875P Chipset. When moving to 3.5GHz we see an even greater increase above all other solutions listed, although the FPU of the AMD 2500+ with NF7-S V1.2 makes a strong showing, once Intel's SSE instructions are implemented however nothing can keep up.

As the trend continues the IC7-G with 3.0C/800 is far ahead of the competition. Both Integer and Float performance are extremely high and only increase further with the jump to 3.5GHz.
SiSoft Memory
Here is where the IC7-G excels over all other current solutions. You can see that running in Single Channel mode the IC7-G is running only slightly faster than most solutions while the BH7 at a 4:5 CPU/Memory ratio is surpassing it in memory bandwidth performance. However once we kick into DC mode the IC7-G leaves everything else behind, by quite a bit I might add. Showing 5351/5353 in memory is nothing short of incredible. Clearly Intel has done their homework in implementing Dual Channel and it certainly shows here.
SiSoft Memory Bandwidth
Just a quick shot showing the IC7-G @3.50GHz/233MHz is blowing by everything else out there. Very nice.
