I Benchmarked the Video/Performance of select roms today and found....

[rstoyguy]

I have heard about new graphics drivers and this and that, so I decided to spend a day and download different roms and test them with a program that benchmarks graphics and a few other things.

These Results are from Virtual Spaghetti's VSBenchmark2007 . (.cab link 12+ MB's)
VSBenchMark tests the following categories:
1. Graphics; Solar System Graphic
2. Others; File r/w, Fill, Compression
3. JPEG
4. Games; 5 layered sprite
5. Music; Plays a 1 minute song. 235Kbps @ 44 Khz

*** All tests were run with the Rom as downloaded. No customizations were run. Each ROM was tested twice and received an Average score. Here are the results:

I was gonna test more, but the results are so close, why bother?

So the Stock rom definately came out on top. I was quite shocked at these test. I thought a newer SYS would be faster than an old one, I was certain some folks had accellerated graphics drivers. I will attach my results to this thread in an hour or so...done.


Edit: On a side note I had no troubles flashing the above roms, and in no particular order. I think ALL these roms are great while they all definately have their Chef's Signature. I run my own rom which btw...came in with a score of 1431. But I'm not into sharing my rom
