Can someone please carry out the CPU Arithmetic and Multimedia benchmarks using SiSoft Sandra.

I want to see how it compares with the Fujitsu M3438G

Please state what CPU you have, too.

Thanks!

With MSN Messenger, Firefox, and Avast! running (among other things):

My CPU Arithmetic score is:
Dhrystone ALU 6798 MIPS
Whetstone FPU/iSSE2 2190/2821 MFLOPS

My CPU Multi-Media Benchmark score is:
Integer x4 iSSE 15063 it/s
Floating-Point x4 iSSE2 16639 it/s

Ouch. My Multi-Media Benchmark scores are just above an Athlon XP 1800+.

Oh well, these are just synthetic benchmarks, right?

Oh yeah, and I have a Pentium M 730 1.6GHz, as shown in my sig, below.

Thanks mate.

Anyone with a 2Ghz or so processor, too?

Cheers

I wouldn't put too much stock in these synthetic benchmarks, though. What would you want to compare the i9300 to the Fujitsu for? If it's for gaming, then this is totally the wrong benchmark for it. Even 3DMark05 would be only moderately helpful for comparing performance in games. If it's for stuff like media encoding, then maybe you can find the more specific "real-world" benchmarks for that. Hmm, I just checked the M3438G out and it looks very similar to the i9300, spec for spec. It should be running the same i915M chipset with its Pentium M processor. It should perform similarly (make sure you do uninstall/reformat the Dell bloatware, though), unless the Fujitsu is running DDR 400 RAM only. Even then, it should be fine as long as you keep the RAM sticks identically sized so that it can operate in dual-channel mode. But, in summary, the Pentium M's in either notebook should perform very similarly in those CPU tests, if you match the clock speeds, of course.

pM isnt really a superstar in multitask so that score is not surprising

Cheers. I'm not a gamer. I would be using it for number-crunching realtime mobile music tech stuff. Those CPU figures are very relevant. I could care less about frames-per-second.

Are laptop users mostly gamers?! I get that impression on these forums... I'm a minority.

Thanks.

ps > The Ram would be 2x 512mb DDR2 533.

Which CPU is that? Have you overclocked it? They're great values.

It's the 2.1pm 765 dothan, not overclocked but with 1 gig of ram.
