Conroe Benchmarks

[nikebee]

yep, another Conroe thread...
just dug this up on google... its a few months old, but i'm not sure how many would have seen it.

test rigs

AMD:
Athlon 64 FX-60 @ 2.8GHz
1GB DDR400 (512MBx2) RAM w/ 2-2-2 / 1T Timings
DFI LANPARTY UT RDX200 (RD480)
Radeon X1900XTX CrossFire
ATI Cat. 6.2 Drivers

Intel:
Conroe @ 2.66GHz
1GB DDR2667 (512MBx2) w/ 4-4-4-15 Timings
Intel DX975XBX motherboard (975X Express)
Radeon X1900XTX CrossFire
Intel INF 7.2.2.1006
ATI Cat. 6.2 Drivers (Modified to support Conroe)

a note: i believe that UT2004 was used as reference because its still a popular game and for quite some time has shown CPU bottlenecks in all tests with recent GPU's.
