Results from similar systems

The table below shows average scores for systems with similar clock speed to yours. The first row represents the current score for this system. Note that AMD and Intel systems often perform very differently at the same clock frequency; AMD uses a "processor rating" for many of their CPUs rather than the actual clock MHz.

CPU Type	Clock MHz	# PCs Tested	CPU Score	Memory Score	Disk Score
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6000	2991	(yours)	21650	11739	51
Intel Pentium D	2992	111	9896	7364	43

Best video results for similar PCs

This table shows the best average scores we have recorded for a particular video board and driver for systems with a CPU and MHz similar to yours. The first row represents the current score for this system. Remember that PC Pitstop's test measures 2D performance; the speed of a particular board on 3D applications such as games may be very different. Also, video performance and system reliability can vary greatly as a function of the drivers that are being used. A driver that provides the highest score may not provide the best image quality and/or system stability. (You can use Driver Alert to see if you have the latest driver.)
