    thats very nice kohaar.. very nice. how does the lappy/CPU perform in real world apps? games and movie encoding (i kno encoding movies make CPU's beg for mercy lol) it must be like paradise having that CPU =P

    It sure is :)

    I haven't tried encoding movies, but I would not believe it to be a problem. I have made two examples for you:

    2xSuperPi running at the same time

    3D app and SuperPi running at the same time

    All 3D apps without a framerate limiter on will eat all your cpu power, but as you can see, I still get a decent superpi score...

    edit: Example of one 3D app running

    edit2: Hehe. Just ran Oblivion in a 800x600 window while doing SuperPi. 1:24

    I got 2mins 39seconds with a P4 Northwood 2.26 @2.72 with 1024 MB RAM and 576 MB free with 49 processes. Also i am going to try 32M overnight lol... anyone else wanna try 32M?
  6. truflip Newcomer, in training Posts: 590

    2min 39sec on the 2M? I though you would do better..
    I jus did 32M for 32min, 37secs.. couldnt wait for it so is tarted browsing n chatting lol.. could prolly get 30 mins..

    anyway thanks for the SS kohaar, im sure you make many of us jealous =P

    i tried 32M and got 29min. Screens later..
    Why are Intel CPU's that slow on SuperPi?

    Ehh. Did you see my score? - Intel Rocks :rolleyes:

    hehe i've seen your score kohaar but look at other users score my 3500+ isn't quite the high end processor that someone would buy but it still managed to score a lower time than most any of intels around here.

    Hehe. I'm not an expert but it seems that Amd for a long time has been superior to Intel when it came to raw computational power. This does however seem to have changed now. At least until Amd releases its new monster :)

    Btw: My 32M score

    Socket 7 fun

    I was just playing around with a old Super Socket 7 mobo I pulled out of a dumpser awhile ago(I'm using it's case with my awesome 3200+ Veince rig.) I ran pi on it's K6-2-300;
    K-6-300 1M pi is 14:4

    So I put in a Pentium 166(not MMX)
    P54C-166 1M pi is 17:1

    Then I bumped to FSB to 83 to run the 166 at 208
    P54C at 208 1M pi is 13:43

    The Pentium at 208 is faster then the K6 at 300!

    I don't want to try 2M. :haha:

    you say it as if you can go out and buy a 4.7GHz chip, or that anybody can overclock the 2.9GHz stock to 4.7GHz and above.

    this is simply not the case, that is an unique and very extreme overclock. the CPU is cooled with liquid nitrogen, the average overclocker could not come anywhere near those speeds.

    also the 1.34v seems a little fishy for such a high clock, how do we know that is real? and not a photoshop'd screenie???

    Intel IS King Again

    Buddy, it's real. This is a ES chip the production chips are better. Yes this is eXtreme cooling. These guys are the best overclockers in the world. Fun to watch'em, I'm glad they let me see it. You can find these on ebay now, and some FS sections in fourms.

    CPUz reads Vcore wrong on all the Core chips, it's more like 1.6v. It may say it in thread somewhere.

    nuttin' to it

    Heck, Mirob, that's only four times faster than my P4 3.2. Big deal! (tee hee hee) :eek:
