We used the nVidia Ion platform from the HP Mini 311 and the Pine Trail platform from the new MSI Wind U135 we previewed at the Intel office and compared the two using their Windows Experience Index.
It’s not much but it should give us a good idea how the new system performs.
MSI Wind U135 with Atom Pine Trail N450 1.66GHz and GMA 3150
HP Mini 311 with Atom N280 1.66GHz and GeForce 9400M.
Based on the Windows Experience Index, both the nVidia Ion and Pine Trail still get the same sub-score in the CPU (not surprising since both units have an Intel Atom N280 CPU).
However, the nVidia Ion platform wins over the Pine Trail on the GPU category with a sub-score of 4.2 brought by the GeForce 9400M compared to the sub-score of 3.0 on the Intel GMA 3150.
