Measure your Notebook CPU Speed

The 1.4GHz Bainias processor only had a 1MB cache. The Dell had a fresh install of XP as the poster said.

 

AC = 1:36 Mins @ 2M
Battery = 3:11 Mins @ 2M

I didn't pad my results. You'll also notice that in the B120 review in this forum the author notes a 2M pi calculation of 2:14. I'm sure if you'd look you'll find other Celeron M's posting similarly impressive results.

The Celeron M in the B120 is the same as the Dothan Pentium M (400fsb) used in the Toshiba you showed just with half the L2 cache and disabled speed step technology. Compared to Banias it has twice the transistors (140million vs 77million) and uses 90nm technology (vs. Banias 130nm.)

In Benchmark comparisons I've found with the Pentium M and Celeron M (equal clock speed and FSB speed) even with the L2 cache handicap, they scored equally as well. The slower pi calculations from the Toshiba point to a system that has room to be improved...

 

Nope, I looked and found a 2M pi calculation for a Celeron 2.8GHz of 3m 3s and a 1M pi calc for a Cleron 2.0GHz of 2m 43s. I'd say your sib's laptop is running on par.

 

Sorry but I am not able to find results. Also can I use this software for desktop as well.

There should be more threads like this, about overall systam benchmarks, etc.

 

Can you please give some help, when I run it, it says many options as "Select digits of Pi to be calculated" and then there are options from 16K to 32 M. Which one I should use.

 

2Million digits - "2M" is what we are testing.

Just a tip - make sure that no other programs/applications are running, and don't do anything while SuperPI is running - you'll get a lower time that way.

hmm i wouldnt brag about 50 processes... sounds like you have some spyware/ adware on your system. Should be around 30-35 processes. You dont need that much, esp with 256 megs of ram.

 

Dell Inspiron 6000
2.13 Pentium M Processor
1GB 533Mhz RAM
7200 RPM 60GB hard drive

These results seem strange, get about the same results, but on the battery it was a second shorter, could have been the operating conditions. I was also running on a full battery and had my battery set to maximum performance. Anyway, here are the numbers:

AC Power - 1:33
Battery Power - 1:32

 

Really? Doesn't sound real.... am I starting to smell some BS? Also, if you overclocked from 1.86 to 2.25 the thing would overheat!!!

 

You would be quite surprised how well Pentium M's overclock. Many people have gotten them over 2.75-3.0GHz. The performance at those clockspeeds are insane. Here's a link to where the Pentium M Sonoma is OC'ed to 2.75GHz:

It goes on for a couple of pages.

How could it not overheat?
--------------------------
Just OCed my desktop... 10% overclocked. Its a AMD 3200+ 2010 Ghz with 1GB DDR 400, 160GB WD, Geforce 6200.

When 2010 Ghz it was: 1:41 (2M)
When 2214 Ghz it gets: 1:29 (2M)

 

I've got 3 results for you:

edit: heres a lower speced machine just out of the box:

sony and dell are just out of the box so little or no surplus services running.

 

I have an overclocked P4 from 3.6 to 6.2 Ghz. did the pi calc in 44 sec.

 

Okay, I have an HP zv6000 with an AMD 3500+ (2.2 Ghz) with 1GB Ram, 100 GB 4200RPM HD, XP home

With AC: 1:48
With battery(8 cell): 2:06

 

3.6 to 6.2? omg, you must have some crazy cooling system to pull that off without blowing up the house. In reality, however, I have no idea... but I'm assuming such a huge change is dangerous or else they would have just released 6.2 ghz instead of 3.6

Anyways, that's amazing... Good Job!

 

Not that I don't believe you but why don't you show a pic of you LN2(liquid nitrogen) cooled machine and some screen caps as well? An overclock of this nature although possible would hardly be stable, viable, or related to NOTEBOOKS.

This is just getting stupid.

 

OMG
Does he actually think we are going to believe he has OC'd a P-4 to almost DOUBLE it's advertized speed without melting the frame...
Come on I have a friend who has PC with a P-4 Not OC'd and I put it on my lap and played a game for 5 minutes and I finally had to take it off my lap verheat: verheat: verheat: I felt like a could fry an egg on my legs
So I think there is about a 0.00001% chance that this guy is actually doing this
And I am with warlord on this please tell us how much you spend LN2 every month it must get expensive...
Actually I think there is a better coolant out there that NASA uses to cool rockets from melting themselves into molten metal...maybe that is what he is using

I OC'd my laptop to 50 terahertz and did 2 million decimals before windows booted.
Then I killed Godzilla and gave superman the finger

 

Its possible to overclock from 3.6 to 6.2. But does that ExtremePCAdmin have any proof? Here is where a guy overclocked his P4 3.6 to a 7.2Ghz. Check it out! CRAZY!

I'm sorry jasonck...
but did you notice that he can't give benchmark tests at anything OVER 5.5Ghz for some odd reason
and that BIOS screen he could have photoshopped that so easily...
I didn't see any benchmark tests either...
Besides his system must have cost $40k+
-TBird

 

Possible yes but, even according to the poster in your link it's only stable on the bios screen...

 

In Addition did you notice that he is getting pre-release stuff from hardware manufacturers and he is in a University sponsored contest...
So he is being paid to OC his PC and they pay for the parts...
I thinkk quite a few people could do what he has done with these circumstances...
-TBird

 

I believe that he's using a desktop, no?

 

And In Addition he has not given ANY benchmark tests at over 7Ghz like he says...
I'll believe it when I see benchmark tests
-TBird

 

Yeah he is...
and this happens to be a NOTEBOOK forum
-TBird

 

Did you see his cooling setup???
It is like he is trying to cool a server or 20 servers

to 2M it took 1:43
that was with a 2.2 Ghz turion-40ml 512 PC2700 RAM, 80 gig hhd... probably goes a little faster now dat i added an extra 512 today. too lazy to run test again lol.

is that weird. battery result lower than plugged in
prob didnt help that i was running sever programs during the test

 

This is an interesting comparison. I had a Toshiba A35, I ran the PI test on it at one point and still have the results for it. I just now ran the PI test on my 6000D. I donno if theirs much point in this. But I'm going to post both results o.o;

Dell Inspiron 6000D: Pentium M 1.6ghz + 1gb of Ram + 60gb5400rpmHD + X300 128mhz + XPpro =
-1m 56s on AC
-same on battery

Toshiba Satellite A35: Pentium 4 2.3ghz + 512mhz of Ram + 60gb4200rpmHD + Integrated Graphics + XPhome =
-5m 33s on AC
-5m 38s on Battery

Thats pretty nifty. ;

 

No, it didn't help. You can get below 1:50 with a 3.0GHz P4-HT. Definitely below 2:00.

 

Seems awfully slow to me. Are you sure it was the 2M test and not the 4M one?

For my two year old A35? First, I'll never be able to rerun the test if I misused SuperPI(Can't remember what was running in the background either.) on it. Cuz, RIP my Toshiba A35. BestBuy totaled it when it was in their Service Center. I looked threw this thread and found someone else with a Toshiba Satellite A35-S159 with the same specs(Page 4 or 5 of this thread?). The PI times for his were only about 2 or 3 seconds faster. So, I'll stick by my pathetically slow results for the A35.(Remember this was a machine that technicaly came out in July of 03). I wasn't implying in anyway that any time over 5 minutes is fast xD!

I was merely showing the comparison between my old Toshiba Satellite A35 and my new Dell Inspiron 6000D.
"Nifty=Holy cow what a step up."

As for the Dell. The results for my Dell are only a few seconds off from the official results for the Super PI test that are posted in the camparison charts on evey review on this forum. Yeah thats not the fastest either.

But I'm not going to complain after pulling up the old results for my old Laptop and then running the PI test on my new one and seeing the difference.

 

Correction. The results for Magicbox's A35 are on page 2

 

I have a Compaq Evo with a 1.8GHz Pentium4-M, that came out in 2002, and even it did SuperPI 2M in 3:11. Something is wrong about those results.
