Performance tests and ratings are measured using specific computer systems and/or components and reflect the approximate performance
of Intel® products as measured by those tests. Any difference in system hardware or software design or configuration may affect actual per-
formance. Buyers should consult other sources of information to evaluate the performance of systems or components they are considering
purchasing. For more information on performance tests and on the performance of Intel products, reference http://www.intel.com/perform-
ance/resources/benchmark_limitations.htm or call (U.S.) 1-800-628-8686 or 1-916-356-3104.
Relative performance for each benchmark is calculated by taking the actual benchmark result for the first platform tested and assigning it a
value of 1.0 as a baseline. Relative performance for the remaining platforms tested was calculated by dividing the actual benchmark result
for the baseline platform into each of the specific benchmark results of each of the other platforms and assigning them a relative perform-
ance number that correlates with the performance improvements reported.
