Passmark Performance Test, Division, Floating Point Division, 2DShapes
 

I have just put together a system with...

Asus P4P800-SE motherboard
P4 2.8Ghz, Northwood, 512k L2 Cache, 800Mhz FSB
2 x 256MB (so dual channel) DDR400 RAM
Gigabyte Radeon 9600 Pro 128MB
Windows XP Home OEM

I have run Passmark Performance Test version 4.0 more than once, and
although most tests return expected results, there are three tests that
return results lower than lesser systems.

While the system gets high marks in addition, subtraction, and
multiplication (up in the 500's and 600's), it scores surprisingly low
in division, where it scores 48.8. Lower than systems with lesser hardware.

Floating point is the same. High marks in the first three, but scores a
73.3 in floating point division.

The last test in question is the 2D shapes test, where it scores 21.0.
3D graphics tests are all high. The 21.0 seems to be surprisingly low
compared to the benchmarks of other systems.

This doesn't seem normal, since systems with lesser hardware have scored
higher as shown in the set of benchmarks that come bundled with Passmark
Performance Test 4.0.

Could this be a bug or flaw in Passmark's software, or is something not
properly configured in this machine I have built.

Thanks in advance
