AquaMark3 was one of the few benchmarks that displayed any real variation in results directly related to system and memory changes. Here, you can see that the Intel P35 offers superior CPU performance over the other chipsets and the P35 with DDR3-1066 runs even better. At DDR3-1333, the numbers jump up another 4% over DDR3-1066. GPU results however, were not affected so much. At the end of the day, the 'Frames-per-second' (fps) breakdown is such: DDR3-1066 offered an average 1fps improvement over the DDR2-800 system from 144fps to 145fps while DDR3-1333 benched 148fps.
