Unit 2 M3

2011 Intel i7 with 580 gtx graphics

The total Nova Bench score for this computer system is 1943, which is the highest score I have seen. This tells me that the components of the computer system are working well, and are good quality.

This computer system received a score of 175 for its RAM system. It has a RAM speed of 11339 MB/s.

175 as a considerably high RAM score in comparison to other computer systems.

The CPU test score for this computer system added up to 796 which is a very good score. There are 3 sections to this test:

-Floating point operations/second: 210561168

-Integer operations/second: 914180192

-MD5 Hashes generate/second: 1265105

These are all high scores which tells us the CPU is functioning well and reasonably fast.

The graphics test for this computer system scored a score of 954, which is by far the highest graphics test score I have come across. The graphics test score contributed massively to the over all Nova Bench score.

-3D Frames per second: 2485

This computer system has no competitors in terms of graphics due to its very high score.

The only downfall of this computer system is the  low score it received in terms of hardware tests, the score received was 18.

As you can see the first computer has much higher scores which tells us that its RAM, CPU and graphics are all better than the windows 7 home premium therefore it is overall a higher quality computer system. How the windows has a higher score on the hardware test telling us its hardware capacity and speed are better. However overall the Intel computer system is better and would be the best one to get.
