Tyan Thunder K7 AMD-760 MP Motherboard Review - Motherboards 41

This is also the first time I have used Photoshop as a benchmark. Using its multi-threaded capabilities, it is easy to show the dual-Athlon system out way ahead. In this test, lower is better, as the graph you see represents the total number of second it took the system to finish all the completed tasks. Here, the Tyan Thunder board shows a 40% improvement over a faster clocked Athlon Thunderbird.

Here are the individual scores:
