Pentium E2100-series Benchmarks Revealed

Productivity benchmarks such as Business Winstone 2004 and Multimedia Content Creation Winstone 2004 show an approximate 1-point difference between the Pentium E2160 and Core 2 Duo E4300, favoring the E4300 – both processors have 1.8 GHz clock speeds. Video encoding in TMPGEnc 3.0 reveals a 1 second performance difference between the two processors, and again favoring the E4300.

When the E4300 was first launched, it’s performance came quite close to the E6300. The same will happen here, where we see the E2160 almost equaling performance in office applications when compared to the E4300. It’s becoming ever clearer that building a high-performing PC doesn’t mean you have to empty the bank account.
