Scientific Applications
ScienceMark 2.0 Moldyn
This test simulates thermodynamic behavior of various materials using their forces, velocities and even positions.
ScienceMark 2.0 Primordia
This code calculates the electron quantum orbitals for any element of the periodic table. We use the default configuration.
ScienceMark 2.0 Cipher
This test is very heavy on FPU consumption and thus we have continued to use it in our new suite.
The Athlon processor has always had a strong showing in the scientific computing field, and based on our ScienceMark 2.0 test results, the Core Duo processor isn’t enough to change that now. Our three results here show the Intel processor well behind.
