BAPCo's SYSMark 2007 is one of our favorite computer performance evaluation benchmarking suites, because it uses real life applications to obtain real life results. From Photoshop to Microsoft Office, it has all of them covered. It is actually quite interesting to watch, too -- as you witness programs open and close by themselves, the tests automatically in the foreground. Although the Intel Core i5-2500K completely blew the i5-750 away (Which was faster than the Core 2 Extreme QX9650, mind you) in our synthetic benchmarks, I actually did not expect it to do so exceptional in SYSMark 2007. But it did. I am going to stop posting percentage gains and just let the results speak for themselves. It is nothing short of incredible.
