A performance comparison of current and
previous generation Dell OptiPlex desktop
systems
TEST REPORT
OCTOBER 2009
KEY FINDINGS
The current Dell OptiPlex 960 desktop
running Windows 7 provided 165%
greater SYSmark Preview 2007 system
performance than that of the previous
generation Dell OptiPlex GX620. (See
Figure 1.)
The current Dell OptiPlex 960 desktop
running Windows 7 provided 97%
greater SYSmark Preview 2007 system
performance than that of the previous
generation Dell OptiPlex 745. (See
Figure 1.)
The current Dell OptiPlex 960 desktop
running Windows 7 provided up to 12%
faster application responsiveness than
that of the previous generation Dell
OptiPlex desktops. (See Figure 2.)
The current Dell OptiPlex 960 desktop
running Windows 7 provided up to 22%
faster system responsiveness than that
of the previous generation Dell OptiPlex
desktops (See Figure 3.)
Executive summary
Dell Inc. (Dell) commissioned Principled Technologies
(PT) to run a set of performance tests on a mix of current
and previous generation Intel® processor-based Dell
OptiPlexdesktop systems. We tested one current Dell
OptiPlex desktop system:
Dell OptiPlex 960 with Intel® Core™ 2 Duo
Processor E8400
We compared performance of Microsoft Windows® 7
Ultimate (Windows 7), Microsoft Windows Vista® Ultimate
SP2 (Windows Vista), and Windows® XP Professional
SP3 (Windows XP) on one current Dell OptiPlex desktop
and of Windows XP on the following two previous
generation Dell OptiPlex desktops:
Dell OptiPlex GX620 desktop with Intel®
Pentium® 4 Processor 630 (4-year-old system)
Dell OptiPlex 745 desktop with Intel Pentium
Processor E2160 (3-year-old system)
Appendix A provides detailed system configuration
information. For the current desktop system, we installed
32-bit versions of the following operating systems:
Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. For the previous generation desktop systems, we installed 32-bit
Windows XP.
We compared the systems in
three categories of tests:
performance, application
responsiveness, and system
responsiveness. We used
SYSmark 2007 Preview
v1.06 to test overall system
performance. We used
custom hand-timed tests to
measure application and
system responsiveness. In
most instances, we found the
current Dell OptiPlex 960
desktop running Windows 7
outperformed the previous
generation Dell OptiPlex
desktops running Windows
XP.
Figure 1 shows the SYSmark
2007 Preview performance
for both the current Dell OptiPlex 960 running Windows 7 and the previous generation Dell OptiPlex desktops
running Windows XP. The current Dell OptiPlex 960 running Windows 7 outperformed the previous generation
Dell OptiPlex GX620 by 165 percent, and outperformed the previous generation Dell OptiPlex 745 by 97 percent.
