It doesn't matter whether you've been reading the Mac or PC magazines. You probably know that some of the big news has been Apple's release of their up and coming G5 (IBM 970) powered PowerMacs. Earlier today, a set of benchmarks for a single processor 1.6 GHz G5 using Cinebench 2003 and Xbench were posted at Chaosmint.com. (The exact page was at: http://www.chaosmint.com/powermac-g5-16/, and I had found out about it at the "Accelerate Your Mac" website at http://www.xlr8yourmac.com.). Since the 1.6 G5 ws the closest in price to the PowerMac I just bought, I was curious to see how that G5 would stack up against my current crop of machines. Since the G5 benchmarks had used Cinebench 2003, it was an execellent opportunity for me (and you!) to see how it stacked up against both other macs and a Windows machine. So, I downloaded Cinebench, ran the benchmark, and tallied the results up using Microsoft Excel. | ||
