DiVX Encoding & Maya 6.0 PLE
DVD to DiVX Encoding
Chaintech V915P (i915P) – Pentium 4 560E, 1GB DDR | |
Intel i915P with DDR2 – Pentium 4 560E, 1GB DDR2 | |
VIA K8T800 Pro – Athlon 64 3200+ (754 pin), 1GB DDR | |
NVIDIA nForce2 Ultra400 – Athlon XP3200+, 1GB DDR |
Here we see no great difference between the time required to encode 12 minutes of DVD video, but Chaintech V915P is a sliver slower than the DDR2 915P and the Athlon 64 system. Extrapolating this data for a full 2-hour movie, the Chaintech V915P will take 4 minutes longer than the 915P using DDR and 2 minutes longer than the Athlon 64.

Here we are using a modified version of SPEC’s Maya 5.0 benchmark and applying it to Alias’ Maya 6.0 Personal Learning Edition. These are not official SPEC results, but still give good comparative results in this professional grade 3D animation package.
Overall, the Chaintech V915P falls behind both the 915P using DDR2 and the VIA K8T800 Pro. It’s really amazing to see DDR2 technology give the 915P such a huge boost in results.
