PCMark 7
PCMark 7 provides a set of 7 suites for measuring different aspects of PC performance with a high degree of accuracy. Overall system performance is measured by the PCMark Suite. The Lightweight Suite measures the capabilities of entry level systems and mobility platforms unable to run the full PCMark suite. Common use performance is measured by the Entertainment, Creativity and Productivity scenario suites. Component performance is measured by the Computation and Storage hardware suites. The Storage suite is ideal for testing SSDs and external hard drives in addition to the system drive.
PCMark 7 showed some strong results on the i7 3770k, showing that the next generation processors really are strong contenders compared to the i7 2700k. When overclocked, the i7 3770k really steamed ahead with over 6100 points, which is a remarkable result to say the least.
