Now I'm not posting scores here to show off, or to compete with
anyone...simply to show the difference between Win32 and Win64.
All tests were performed three times, and then an average from the
scores was taken.
Filesystem and cache/memory benchmarks were not recorded, the same
applies to LAN,internet, CD-ROM drives etc...as the Cache was a pain to
record, and none of the others would make a difference to the scores.
The Win32 drivers were from MSI and completely up to date.
The Win64 drivers are all default ones from Microsoft
The results are below :
Win32 - CPU Arithmetric - Dhrystone ALU - 8764 MIPS
Win64 - CPU Arithmetric - Dhrystone ALU - 8941 MIPS
Win32 - CPU Arithmetric - Whetstone FPU/isse2 - 1324/4335 MFLOPS
Win64 - CPU Arithmetric - Whetstone FPU/isse2 - 3744/3979 MFLOPS
Win32 - CPU Multimedia - Integer isse2 - 6257
Win64 - CPU Multimedia - Integer isse2 - 15521
Win32 - CPU Multimedia - Floating point isse2 - 20696
Win64 - CPU Multimedia - Floating point isse2 - 22323
I considered including the memory benchmarks here...but the Win32 and
the Win64 ones are identical, so there is no point.
Points to note.
Win64 is slightly faster at CPU Arithmetic ALU tests.
Win64 HAMMERS Win32 at CPU Arithmetric FPU tests
Win32 is a quite a bit faster at CPU arthimetric isse2 tests
Win64 is about two and a half times FASTER than Win32 in CPU multimedia
Integer tests!
Win64 is slightly faster than Win32 in Floating point Multimedia tests.
These are some benchmarks that I have run on my PC:
Number of CPUs: 1
CPU manufacturer: AuthenticAMD
CPU type: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+
CPU features: MMX 3DNow! SSE SSE2
CPU Serial #: Not available or disabled
CPU1 speed: 2008.8 MHz
CPU Level 2 Cache: 1024KB

Video card: RADEON 9800 PRO
Video resolution: 1024x768x32
2 SATA 120 GB Maxtor
Sony DRU-500a
The system was tested With Windows XP Pro and Windows XP 64-bit
The system was in normal condition of use (with DSL running, virus-guard,
ecc.).
The system was tested with this 2 programs: BurnInTest Pro and Perfomance
Test (
