Hi all!
When benchmarking CPU's what consideration is taken regarding how the benchmarking programs is compiled and optimized for specific architectures? At microsoft channel9 the VC++ compiler team member described that no optimizations where made for dual core check this video link Channel9 VC++ compiler backend
Therefore I think benchmarking a cpu should be done in an optimized way. Anyone knows about the differences in VC++ compiler and the Intel C++ compiler? Has Amd an own c++ compiler that optimizes for their own architecture?
How does Conroe VS AMD x2 perform in 64 bit environments with optimized benchmarking programs? That would be interesting to know, their FULL potential...
