MPC Millennia 940i Dream Machine Review

- The MPC Millennia 940i's swift performance gives it plenty of appeal. Using an Intel 3.8-GHz Pentium 4 570J and 1GB of DDR2-533 SDRAM, the Millennia notched a score of 99 in our WorldBench 5 tests. Although we haven't reviewed any similarly configured systems, that puts this Millennia ahead of the average earned by PCs using a 3.6-GHz Pentium 4 and 1GB of RAM. The machine also posted impressive numbers in our graphics tests--it had the second-best frame rates in the April 2005 round of performance systems we looked at, nabbing 155 fps in the Return to Castle Wolfenstein game at 1024 by 768 resolution.
