Measure your Dual/Multi Core Notebook CPU Speed - Bye Bye to SuperPI

Here's my desktop.

wPrime 32M:

2 Threads - 27,974 sec ( http://wprime.net/score.cgi?id=16222)

4 Threads - 27,551 sec ( http://wprime.net/score.cgi?id=16220)

 

M1330 with T5450, 48.347



Anyone else used wprime version 1.60? It gives me WAY off results, 90seconds for wPrime32 when I get 48.347 with version 1.55

 

32m = 25 secconds E2140 stock voltages + stock cooler
1024m (not pictures above , cant be botherd to run again) = 804 secconds

£30 for E2140
£160 for Q6600

E240@ 3Ghz = 25 secconds
Q6600@3Ghz = 15 secconds

66.7% of the performance of a Q6600 but only at 18.8% of the price...

(Not to mention its not even a quad- So unfair comparison)

Oh yeah...


Edit:

Ditto , wPrime 1.60 gives me wayyy off results also , I was getting 47 odd with 1.60 seems a common problem

 

32M: 2 minutes and 24.437 seconds
1024M: 1 hour, 19 minutes, and 10.715 seconds

I did the 1.024 billion one for kicks

 

Isn't wPrime taking the CPU to full speed when running?

Maybe you can tell me why my score is so low:

 

Go into advanced settings and make sure 2 threads are being used.

 

There are 2.

 

Does you task manager show two charts under the performance tab?

If yes, then the only reason your score is that low is that you are being bogged down with resources hogs:
- Antivirus suite (Norton & MacAffee are the worst of them)
- Spyware detector
- System Restore
- your Theme is set to Aero (you can change everything to Classic Mode)
etc....

 

Task manager shows 2 charts. I read the tips before, so I disabled:

- Antivirus
- All internet connections
- System restore is long time disabled
- Entered Task manager and ended un-needed processes.
- Aero off.

Next idea?

 

You power options must be set to Max Performance.

And you need to make sure your system is plugged into AC to prevent power saving.

 

I even reviewed bios and changed a setting "when on AC: Max. Performance"

I tried everything, but still shows 1169 MHz in the wPrime window.

 

get RMclock to override your BIOS and OS's CPU settings.

I use it to force full clock speed for benchmarks.

 

Well, that's more like it. Now my CPU speeds at 2 GHz. Here's the result with all I could think of off:

But still a bad score compared to other CPU's which are slower.

 

thats fine.

I can still see that your Theme is on Aero.

Dont worry about the other scores, since the people that attained them, literally, stripped down your OS to bare GUI and working drivers.

 

Actually the reason your scores are so slow is because version 1.60 of wPrime (what your using) is not a 'stable build' and the results are waaaaaaay off what they should be. My results from 1.60 are nearly double what I get with 1.55.

Download version 1.55 here and then you should get an accurate result

 

I guess it's not a beta version. It doesn't say anything anywhere about being a beta.

I'll try 1.55 tough.

 

Your right, I used the wrong terminology, it's fixed now

Post your findings when you try 1.55!

 

If that's the case, what'll happen to all the guys that will try the last version? I mean, they'll all get higher scores just because they use that version.

And last but not least: which scores are real?! The lower scores that we like, or the higher scores that we hate?

Here's mine with the 1.55: 41.202 sec.

 

Unless wPrime have changed the way it benchmarks the system with version 1.60 I guess it is just plain wrong. 1.60 still calculates to the same number as version 1.55 so I think it is just giving inaccurate results.

 

Why does it only detect 1 CPU? v1.55

 

you go into Advanced and set threads to 2

 

32M = 59.467 sec / should be around 35.0 secs

both cores where at 100% when running

why / set to 2 threads

which version of wPrime are you using?

people said the 1.5 versions are more stable.. and remember to disable the resource hogs.

 

I don't like to brag(although it makes me happy) but why does my score beat a T7300??

I know mine's overclocked but...


Here is my speed with the v1.55,

 

The new AMD mobile CPUs are quite good.
If you can submit your scores, it would be nice to put that score on the hall of fame.

 

it was 1.5, just download 1.6 - jus the same time

some thing is wrong, during the processing, the % indicator seems to speed up and slow down.

yeah 37 is very good , I think my t7200 gets just over 45 im really pleased with my desktops 25 though
hows that amd under load temp wise?? My bros machine is always giving out v hot air.

 

what Hall of Fame???(First Award since getting my laptop, buhuhu(tears of joy))

Here is my new Benchmarks, my last becnchmark was done in the safe zone of my overclocking(2.25GhZ). I tried it now to the unstable range of 2.4GHZ.(unstable because many applications, mostly CPU intensive like video encoders, hangs with this speed)

The first one is on v1.55 and v1.60 (v1.6 shows that I outpaced a T7700)

 

Well my temps when using Orthos and while running Aero Dreamscene(These 2 applications use the GPU while also running the CPU) My CPU temps are about 85 C(2.25GHZ) and my GPU at 77 C. These temps were taken when it was already 20 minutes since i started using the 2 applications.

 

32M speed test :30.5sec
1024M stability test:974.581

Hwbot Link
ran this right after a clean windows installation and with aero turned off
was ~55sec and ~2000sec before clean installation. so i guess this is a BIG BIG improvement

T9300 wPrime32: 30.404

 

I have 2 values for Vista Home Premium
33.79s is for the stock, 2.4GHz

28.987 is from when I OC'd to 2.8GHz

 

Here is the bench for an HP dv2200 with Vista Business SP1 x86

 

Let me join the party
it's my humble Asus U1E with U7500 1.06 GHZ

161.337 for 32m


I know it's slow

ups forgot to set into 2 thread

updated resul 76.89

not bad

 

But is it slow in normal usage? Oh, you might consider updating your Sig.

I'll be back soon with 2,8GHz results.

 

nope. mo slowness in normal use

My main workstation still Acer, that's why I still keep as sign

 

SHAZAM!!! Quad Core Advantage!!!
q6600 oced to 3.2ghz at x8 multi hp x64

 

my cheap POS Acer 5315 (upgrades in sig)

Gateway P-6831FX Notebook w/ T9300 CPU.

 

Damn, I just ran wprime 1.55 and it got 44s.
Terrible,oh very terrible indeed.
Let`s see what things I can disable.

EDIT : disabled all that I could, AV, a bunch of processes that were using the cpu(according to the task manager...)
41s.
Damn that is low and despicable.
Most people get about 34-37s.

EDIT2 : Disabled a bunch more random processes(26 processes running atm),got 40s.Damn it just isn`t fair

 

32.752 sec
T8300, 2.4ghz core 2 duo

 

update
i got 29.264 when running vista in safe mode

 

I don`t get it. Is my T7500 a crappy CPU ?

 

no it is not eleron... try booting in safe mode, BUT better still dload the latest wiprime, when i tried 1.6 i got 64seconds and on 1.55 i got 32

Also, wPrime is not a terribly good performance indicator. I had a better time OC'd to 2,8 GHz than Chaz's 3,4GHz X7900, because my fsb Was faster. That's also why AMD CPU's score so highly.

 

use the 1.61 version for the test

 

For 32M (both under XP SP2):

HP NC 8000 Pentium M banias 1.7Ghz 1GB ram: 1min 49.5sec

Thinkpad r50P Pentium M banias 1.7Ghz 2GB ram: 1min 50.7 sec

 

Advent 9617 (Uniwill L75II)

Intel Pentium Dual Core [email protected]/ 2GB RAM@533MHz / Vista Home Premium - 59.7 sec

basically, it performs almost like t5200, as I expected.
