99 Tests Red type denotes first place.
High scores are best.
We ran ZD Business Winstone 99 under both Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0 to show integer performance while running real applications. Intel also offers the Pentium III Xeon, which is marketed mainly as a workstation and server processor. While the Xeon matched similarly clocked Athlons in Business Winstone scores, it lagged behind on almost every other test. Thus, buying systems with less expensive CPUs frees you to spend the extra money on sufficient memory, a good 3-D graphics card, and a fast hard disk. Microsoft Windows NT Tests Red type denotes first place.
