Multimedia benchmarks measure processor performance when processing graphics,
video, digitized sound, and other multimedia data.
Integer benchmarks measure processing efficiency for integer data, which includes
the words and numbers that you manipulate when using spreadsheet, word processing,
presentation, and database applications.
Floating-point benchmarks measure processor performance for numbers stored in
"floating-point" format that includes decimal places. Good floating-point performance is
required for 3-D graphics, computer-aided design, and many computer games.
