how the hell does Feek's imac beat MacRS4's?

Clearly Lion has optimised the graphics. I'd like to see MacRS4 run the tests again using Lion as opposed to Snow Leopard.

Is Mac still on SL? As the OpenGL libraries are still 1.6.13 What are they in Lion?

Early 2008 (iirc) Macpro 3,1 8-core with 10gb Ram and 128gb Crucial SSD

Really quite tempted to replace my old 4core Macpro 1,1 with a new 12core.

10% OpenGL boost with Lion over SL.

Ill run this on my base-spec i5 MacMini tomorrow, seems a nippy little bugger.

Looking forward to that. My late 2006 MBP is showing its age. Won't run the GPU test and gets 1.24 on CPU

I'm not sure if this is 'good' as such?

It doesn't

Lion is faster, or at least benchmark's faster anyways.

Anyone done the 2011 MBA yet?

ray168 · 28 Jul 2011 at 03:20

will try this later

MikeHunt79 · 28 Jul 2011 at 04:11

OpenGL test wouldn't work for me, still here's how my relic compares...

Fozzie55 · 29 Jul 2011 at 07:43

Thanks Darryn, yes it does seem nippy. May be upgrade time. If someone has any other new Mini?

Here you go - my 13" 1.8Ghz i7/4Gb/256Gb:

Obviously I needed it.

Just got my 1.8 i7 MBA 13" today. Got 11.31 FPS and 2.31 PTS

God the 9600gt is about the same as the HD 3000

my poor old mbp 09 looks a bit slow now

Same as mine - pretty cool units hey?

rare · 31 Jul 2011 at 00:43

Yeah its pretty sweet! My first mac, so getting used to it and the way the OS works. Some odd quirks but I will get the hang of it I am sure!

The hardware is wonderful!

MacRS4 · 31 Jul 2011 at 01:47

Early thoughts and comparisons on the lines here. Note, I haven't finished it yet.... Some videos & stuff to come.

[EDIT]ed, didn't realise ******* was blocked.

[EDIT]ed again, doh.

2010 2.66Ghz MBP, 8GB RAM, Nvidia GT 330M

Would love to see some figures from recent hardware. I'm collating it all in a spreadsheet btw. (Sad I know)

GeX · 25 Sep 2012 at 09:49

I'll bench my 2012 MBPr later
