The updated 13-inch White MacBook with 2.13GHz CPU and 160GB HDD and 2GB of 800DDR2 RAM memory, ( and featuring polycarbonate shell chassis rather than aluminum unibody, the older mini-DVI port, a FireWie port) and its competitive price of $1000 surely has appealed many Mac fans. So, it is nice to know how much this laptop is faster than Macbook powering by 2.0GHz CPU.
MacWorld has done a comprehensive performance comparison between The update White MacBook with 2.0GHz MacBook and 1.8GHz MacBook Air and 2.4GHz MacBook Pro ( with the price of $1999) laptops. They have taken the help of SpeedMark5 application for this review and have evaluated the laptops with Photoshop time test, iTune MP3 encoding test and Cinema 4D test and Quak4 test.
According to the review,
The update white Macbook beats its predecessor: overall performance boasted about 6.5% more; scoring 8% better in Photoshop test and iTune test and 5 percent better in Cinema 4D
The update MacBook vs. 2GHz Unibody MacBook: overall performance the updated Mac was 5 percent better than the unibody Mac. However, in Quake4 test related to memory, Unibody Mac hit the Update White Mac for its 066MHz DDR3 of RAM.
The update MacBook vs. 2.4GHz MacBook Pro: overall performance of the Mac was 10.5% slower than Mac Pro. In Quake 4 test, Mac Pro was absolutely the winner- 82 percent more frames per second than the white MacBook.
The update MacBook vs. 1.8 GHz MacBook Air: overall performance (SpeedMark5 test) of the White Mac was 12% faster than Air.
The benchmark result shows that the update MacBook is really a good choice for the consumers who need a portable speedy laptop (not sluggish portable laptops like CULV-based laptops or Neo-based laptop with close prices to Mac) with an affordable price. It is sheer a good option in the American market (although it is equipped with the old DVI port).
