SPECviewperf 11 Benchmark comparison

We have done benchmark tests on Compucon Design Workstations and the results are as shown in the table below.  We used SPECviewperf 11 from the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation, a benchmarking application that uses viewsets from 8 CAD application which are representative of the tasks of a typical CAD workstation.  The table also shows 2 top brands of workstations for price performance comparisons.  The pricing for Brand 1 and 2 was originally in USD on their respective website and has been converted to NZD for comparison purpose.

All 3 workstations are based on Quadro 2000 for consistency, but the hardware configurations vary.

The above comparison shows that Compucon Design Workstation outperformed Brand 1 and is on par with Brand 2.  However Compucon Design Workstation costs about half or less than half of their prices.   This situation is a result of the diligence and knowledge of the Compucon team.
