DirectX 7 Games: 3D Mark 2000
The 3D Mark 2000 determines DirectX 7's Direct3D performance under Windows XP. The Athlon XP 2100+ even outstrips, albeit marginally, the Intel Pentium 4/2400 with Rambus memory. All Pentium 4 CPUs at an FSB clock speed of 133 MHz and 533 MHz Rambus memory that are not yet available on the market were marked with a blue-and-black bar and are there only for reference purposes.
The 3D Mark 2001 determines DirectX 8's Direct3D performance under Windows XP. This test makes it clear that the Athlon XP 2100+ is the perfect CPU for 3D games; none of the currently available Pentium 4 processors can even come close. All Pentium 4 CPUs at an FSB clock speed of 133 MHz and 533 MHz Rambus memory that are not yet available on the market were marked with a blue-and-black bar and are there only for reference purposes.
