T2300 2M x 2 = 1m38s, for the first time my CPU usage keeps 100% (running 1 superpi the cpu usage keeps only at 50%)

Amd 3200+ takes 3m40s, not unexpectedly.
What is the x1 time and your RAM clock frequency?

I'm curious to see how the memory bandwidth factors in here.

Thanks,

my system has the slower ram (533MHz?), 512x2

1M: 35s -> 39~40s
+12.86%

2M: 1m27s -> 1m38s
+12.64%

seems within error range, memory/cache miss is not an issue

Anyone can do less than 1m 07s in 2M?

People with the Nvidia graphics should do less than that, and people with lower CAS also.

T2500 2gb 667 7800 go 5400rpm 100GB

1M 33
2M 1:14

All stock except for XG Mobileforce drivers. No reformat.

We need more results

Hi guys! Stuff like the battery type is not required. We need more results, specially of the T2400, T2500 and T2600 with RAM data so we can make a table.

I cannot understand why there is a spread in the results for the same CPU. I can only think of RAM and disk.

My T2600 Only does 1:11 in 2M....

100GB 7200 RPM Hitachi.

2GB Samsung Ram, 667MHZ...

Most people just have their specs in their sig, which is where the battery info is coming from. Also, I don't know if disk really matters or not since I tried using a RAM disk to run the program to eliminate that variable and it made no difference with my 60GB 7200RPM drive.

Also, almost 13% difference seems to me to be more than a normal error margin. More results will show if the 667 RAM indeed makes a difference.

Yes the results are strange enough. For example my processor seams to get the fastest for the 1M (28 secs) but is also one of the slowest for the 2M (1:10). Wonder why that is? Its no big deal. But its interesting.

ram disk

Hi! I read the post concerning the RAM disk. However, when I changed the disk setting in the Bios, I started to get 1m07s instead of 1m08s.
I really don't have any explanation.


My disk is the 100Gb with 7200 rpm.

For 1M I also get 28s. I had the antivirus on before.

The memory is a cheap (transcend) 667 Mhz, so I wonder if a better brand, like Crucial (micron) or Kingston will result in lower times.

I also noticed that the X1400 uses system memory, and the bandwidths are lower.

It seems that the graphics card is completely unrelated, but indeed I found that type of effect in bandwidth after I searched in Google.


Another possible aspect is that I tuned my Windows for speed (disabled indexing and other stuff) but I did not benchmarked before, so I really don't know if that is important. It feels quicker, but don't know if it is really quicker.

I just found a setting in the BIOS for HD perfromance settings

My New Score for 1 M = 33 Sec 2 M 1m 22sec.

Dave I also had a look in the BIOS for the hard drive performance settings but could'nt find it. Could you tell me where to find it?
Thanks

Its located in the Post Behavior Menu

Called HDD Acoustic Mode

yea found it ok. Thanks
I tried running the tests again but it had no effect.
