Upcoming G5 Tests

You may or may not know that Maxon has released a beta version of Cinebench 2003 optimized for the G5. As reported earlier, the optimized version shows about a 25% increase in performance. I’ve got the software and will re-run the Cinebench tests on whatever G5’s I can get my hands on, though it will probably be the weekend of the 25th before I get the results posted. I might move faster, but I’m not convinced of the newsworthiness of the optimized test since overall results can be found elsewhere on the web. Still, I will post the new tests for completeness and will include the full data set when I do.
