Two screenshots, temp + performance?

Just installed my E6300, The previous 945 Chip was underperforming badly (945 pentium D) so I sent that back and got this one. However this one is poor as well. Sisoftware sandra result:

8095 MIPS
5641 MFLOPS

That's pants :rolleyes:

Lastly, why does the temp of the second core of my cpu not show up on coretemps OR Intel TAT? But it says there are two on it and in system information?

Running 1 Gig of 5300 RAM on a asrock DUAL-VSTA mobo.

Any ideas? really dissappointed :(
 
Check your Bios and make sure your CPU has defaulted to some silly speed? Also, dunno if its meant to but it says your using a Pentium M, which could be some cause if you've recieved a fake/repackaged CPU.
 
Is the second core enabled in Windows?

What does Task Manager show for the CPU(s). Does Device Manager show the computer as ACPi Multiprocessor and have 2 processors listed? What does CPU-Z say?

I saw a very similar TAT screen yesterday when I disabled one of my 6600 cores for testing.
 
Sorry, how do I tell if the second core is enabled in windows? It lists two processors in the "system" in control panel?
 
Okay, is it usually the Motherboard that's at fault when there's lacklustre performance? As both chips I've tried have been down on their normal figures. I have the latest BIOS and driver updates.
 
Press Microsoft's favourite buttons (CTRL-ALT-DEL). When the window comes up, go to the performance tab. See if its showing two windows side by side under CPU Usage History. If there are two, its seeing at least 2 virtual processors, so there should be 2 there.
 
Ummm, no, thats not right.

There should be two graphs there for the processor usage... not just one.

Just make sure that under View -> CPU History -? show seperate graph per cpu is selected.

If it is, you've probably disabled the multiprocessor option in the bios. On some Asus boards, disabling 'Hyperthreading' will disable a core on dual core cpu's.
 
c2d dont have hyperthreading? dunno y tht would effect it, also go to system, then device manager, under computer take a screen shot of fhtat

it should say acpi multiprocessor pc

if not you may have to re-install windows



also 51 processes, nah thats not a lot i have 58 atm

Right, there's no option to always show seperate CPU's in the view heading in the task manager window.

Also, there's no Device manager in my system in the control panel :p

Not having much luck here chaps.

I haven't touched the Hard drive since the last PC I had (athlon 2600) I've just stuck it into this new rig. Do you think a re-format may cure this? I didn't think the hard drive would affect it that way, but then I know Jack!
 
Wahey! Re-format and She's showing two cores in the performance tab :cool: And it's benching at twice the power in sandra :eek: :D

Now the latest problem is, it keeps locking up frequently :rolleyes:
