ok, this is the competition you've all been waiting for;

WHO HAS THE MOST CPU POWER IN THE THGC; POST YOUR CPU/MOBO/MEMORY SETUP AND PREFERABLY SISOFT SANDRA 2003 RESULTS (arithmetic and multi-media)

ok i have a modest asus a7v266-e, 512mb, and athlon XP (tbred B) 2100 @ 150fsb 1950mhz

arithmetic
alu 7229
fpu 2934

multimedia
integer 10736
floating 11448

PLEASE post your results, the winner will receive unimaginable bragging rights, respect and a leadtech geforce fx 5900 pro, ok maybe not the fx but definately the bragging rights.

thanks and good luck

should if fire up the ol 386 for you guys...

how bout the pentium...

the 286?

maybe later i will do tests on a pII 233...266 and a pIII 700...and i will do some tests if this forum is still around on a tualatin celeron...which i am gettin for myself as a birthday present...

for dhy
mine = 7229/1950mhz = 3.7 points per mhz
your pII = 1504/560mhz = 2.6 points per mhz

wow, i didnt realise work done per clock had increased so much over the years, i wonder what it would be for a p4 and an opteron?

p.s. i would love to see the results from a 286

p.p.s. piii_man, shouldnt it be pii_man? :wink:

you have to remember that i only have mmx enabled on this cpu...no other insturction sets

dhy and whe are a great way of comparing the processing horsepower of 2 cpus because they don't rely on memory or the agp card bla..bla

the 286 is lost...lol...i have a mainboard for it but no cpu...also i doubt it will run windows if i find it...the 386 will though

No i should not be pII_Man... I was playing around with the pII because it is a decent overclocker...i wanted to know the max bus speed my BX board can support...it seems as if it has no problem going to 142mhz fsb...the cpu is what is holding it back...BTW...ATi makes a damn good card...the agp bus speed is currently at 93mhz and it is perfectly stable...go ati go (this is a lowley rage pro too!)

First of all I want to let you all know that Sandra isnt a valid benchmark at the moment, because it seems to not support the extra cache of the barton cpus. My tbred @ 2.3ghz is faster than my barton @ 2.3ghz in this benchmark, but in 3dmark 03 and 2001se, the cpu score is much higher, and so is the overall score.

Heres my results anyway.....

How the heck are you guys getting over 7000 alu score???? Surely my barton @ 2.3ghz is faster than a 2100@ 1950mhz :/

Nope, nothing running in the background. I get about that score all the time. It seems as though its just a sandra thing though as my cpu score in 3dmark03 is like 680 compared to my 2.4ghz tbred's score of 635. Maybe the nforce 2 chipset and 200fsb influence the scores or something? I get 3gb's memory bandwidth though.

Also note im running windows 98se, maybe sandra is optimized for xp? Only had this system running a few months, but in the pulldown window in sandra its performance says its where it should be, just above a 3200xp. Maybe its my version of sandra or something.
According to my sandra, a 2400 sould get 5753 alu and 3058 fpu, a 3200 should get 6290 and 3380 and i get just above the 3200....

you are forgetting that the dhy and whe benchmarks are purely cpu related...they are not effected by bus speed or cache or memory bandwith or anything but the raw processing power of the cpu...i could probably shut off the L2 cache of my pII and get the same score...

Also i have found...sorry to say this but sandra has very inacurate benchmarks...especially for memory bandwith...it fluctuates so much on my computers...it is just too inacurate...sandra's benchies are very synthetic and should be taken with a large heaping spoon of salt...

it is obviouse that my pII is the bigest (.25 micron)....does that mean i win? I will put some heatsinks on the cache to see if i can get 600mhz out of this chip...it is the cache that seems to be holding me back :evil:

my pII would rip it...hehe...in all "real world" (not to be confused with MTV) tasks...

and i have a 386 next to my desk along with a 387...i really gotta fire em up...i beleive i have some dos benchmraks somewhere...that way i could compare them to my pIII system...that would be cool...however i have no powersupply that uses the old style AT connector lying around...maybe tomarrow i will partially dissasemble the k6...just to see if i can get that 386 chugging...

If you decrease your fsb and put ur multiplier up to 13 like maximumgoat has then you'll get a high mark, the Sandra CPU benchmark and multimedia benchmark are purely CPU only and as pIIIman says it doesn't takeinto account your fsb etc... just think of it as a multiplier benchmark! Sounds mad.

Anyway for us to really see who has the fastest set up we need to make the final mark a combination between the memory benchmark the multimedia and the CPU bench.

So why don't we start a new thread with those three marks clearly displayed first and then comments after?

oh come on PooBaa...i benched the fastest currently running desktop in my house...surely your p4 can beat that...

Hold on HWBOSS...i have to partially disassemble another computer to get you guys some 386 benchies...i gotta also find a dos benchmarking program...i will probably just use a freeare dos program i have that will encode a wav to Mp3...i am gonna give links to the mp3 file...and to the program whenever i do it so others can try the same on their computer...

Sorry. i dont have a P4.
ONLY a XP1700+ running at 167fsb at 1750Mhz.
So i automatically loose in the synthetic mem benchmarks, and proly also in the multimedia benchmarks as i dont have your Mhz.

Still plays rocking games though! :smile:

If you are uninformed STFU...pretty good for an overclocked 1.1 ghz cpu...
