hmm looks like my next pc will be an intel

bout time they made somthing good especially after the p4 crap they were putting out.

superpi is all about memory speeds. and with a bigger cache the times are effected greatly.

but either way 16s is nothing to sniff at. thats a lot of processing power.! :eek:

Jimbo Mahoney · 22 Apr 2006 at 00:02

16s!

That really is impressive.

p4radox · 22 Apr 2006 at 00:10

Impressive. And that's only one of the cores!

OV3RCLOCK3R · 22 Apr 2006 at 01:44

Very impressive but i'd like to see how they do in normal usage and gaming

AWPC · 22 Apr 2006 at 01:44

Cannot wait to see what the 3.33Ghz Extreme Edition is gonna do as that was originally intended to be the 1st launch CPU available :eek:

I can't believe the performance gap between this conroe and my pentium D830 @ 3.6GHz. Mine does a 1Mpi in 37 seconds :mad:

, I feel so outdated

and snail slow. I will save till January next year and get whats best then along with windows Vista

gonna upgrade to conroe as soon it got released!!

gonna be a massive jump from P4 2.4ghz 800mhz, think the super PI was around 1min and 10 secs. :eek:

just done the 1mb super PI on my Rock XCT laptop, Pm 2.0ghz, took 40 seconds :eek:

Shame about the lack of SLI support... there'd be no more bottlenecks with that beast!

Jimbo Mahoney · 22 Apr 2006 at 11:42

It'll make a change to go back to Intel.

I've been with AMD since my Celeron (366 @ 550 etc) overclocking days

But the A64 still is about the same in games, 3dmark etc, this core was running at 2.952 ghz though

Notice how slow that spi is though, at stock speeds it runs 29s which fugger showed one running stock @ 25s a while back, and at 2.95 its only 21s while here at 200mhz more its 5 seconds less.

Still can't beat the 12GHZ Quad optys with tyan server boards, that are now starting to be used in bench’s.

The phrase "clutching at straws" comes to mind.

Core duo isnt conroe though.

Conroe has a few more tweaks so it can run in a desktop environment.

That link is nothing to do with this thread imo
