WorldBench overall performance
WorldBench uses scripting to step through a series of tasks in common Windows applications. It then produces an overall score. WorldBench also spits out individual results for its component application tests, allowing us to compare performance in each. We'll look at the overall score, and then we'll show individual application results alongside the results from some of our own application tests.
The Caviar RE2 trails the Raptor by only a point in WorldBench. That's good enough for second place, tied with the Caviar SE16 and Deskstar 7K500. Let's break down WorldBench's overall score into individual test results for a closer look.
