Measure your Notebook CPU Speed

1:16

1.83 Core Duo
1G 533 RAM

 

Does it only work on notebooks? I downloaded it onto my desktop and ran the program, then the program read 'Not Calculated' in a load of multiple lines. Getting my new notebook on Tuesday so i will try it then

 

You have to scroll down to the test the you ran. It lists them in number of places. So if you ran 2million places you have to scroll down to that and it will tell you the results.

 

My destop computer has an:

Intel Celeron D 330 2.66GHz processor
533MHz FSB
256K Cache
256MB DDR RAM

and i got 2m46s

Is this good or bad?

 

Is that to 2million places? Did you run other apps while doing it? Was that on AC power?

 

Yes it was 2M places. Had 4 other internet windows open and running while doing the test, and yes obviously the computer is connected to the AC mains, otherwise it wouldn't power up. It is a large desktop computer not a notebook!

 

Compaq V2000 Sempron 3000+ 1.8ghz
768MB RAM
2m. 12secs

 

So is this good or bad?

 

Its in the range for a Cele D. My older Celeron(2.8GHz, 128k cache, 400MHz FSB) did it in 3m+. So for that cpu it is a decent score.

 

Ok, AC Power, Started to use winamp when I started to calculate 4M, then closed that and did online video streaming from YouTube when I calculated 8 and 16M

My Laptop is an Acer Aspire 5672WLMi.

Code:

+ 000h 00m 01s    [  16K]
+ 000h 00m 01s    [  32K]
+ 000h 00m 02s    [  64K]
+ 000h 00m 03s    [ 128K]
+ 000h 00m 07s    [ 256K]
+ 000h 00m 15s    [ 512K]
+ 000h 00m 36s    [   1M]
+ 000h 01m 24s    [   2M]
+ 000h 03m 09s    [   4M]
+ 000h 06m 52s    [   8M]
+ 000h 15m 52s    [  16M]
- Not calculated. [  32M]

how good is it?

NO!
WRONG!
Dual-Core means nothing to this test one core gets allocated and does all the work while the other core sits back and picks it's nose
I should know I have an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
Here are my specs:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
1GB RAM

A/C Power: (This is a desktop so it can't run off batteries normally) Running nothing else
40 sec 1M
1:33 2M
3:30 4M

I was watching the Task Manager the whole time and only one core was going and allocated for Super_Pi.exe use
Yes this is a dual-Core for those who didn't know

For those who know more about CPUs here is the CPU-Z screenshot: (see Attached)

That's right, it only uses one core. SuperPI is not multi-threaded.

Chaz

 

Well, the workload for PI is not split between the two processors, but I would assume there is SOME gain by having some of the other OS and other processes run on the other core also. Regardless, the Core Duo's do an impressive job of calculating PI.

Does anybody know what the highest time is?

wow those dual cores take some serious beating!!! hmmm maybe i shoulda waited to get an AMD X2 Turion chip... as most tests for the AMD vs Intel Dual cores have AMD winning hands down... looks like the Yonahs are gonna take something special to beat tho!

oops my original battery time was not on the max battery setting

Ran 2 instances of SuperPi simultaneously on T2500 on AC Power:

SuperPi 1: 1:23
SuperPi 2: 1:24

Theoretically, I wouldn't think there would be a difference since one instance only uses one core, but I lost about 10 sec. Interesting

1:34 for my core solo on ac.

1.66 core solo 1gb ram 5400rpm hd. pretty decent i guess for a 500 lappy

 

hhmmm, the dell inspiron's are looking pretty promising, so I'll go ahead and post my time too... I got the following with my Dell Inspiron 6000 1.83Ghz, 1G ram:

When using the AC power cable: 1m 44s

While running on battery in the maximum performance state: 1m 44s

Major letdown on the maximum battery setting, however... : 3m 48s

 

Here's mine...
Thinkpad T60
T2400 Core Duo
1GB RAM (512x2)
80GB 5400 SATA HD

Ive set it in "power source optimized" using the Thinkcenter program so performace dips alot when running under its batteries. I ran Super Pi three times on each power setting and these are the average I got:
On AC: 1min 18sec
On battery: 2min 44sec

 

This could be fun and informative, just download this free program to calculate pi (windows based only).
ftp://pi.super-computing.org/windows/super_pi.zip
Then run the program to measure the time it takes to calculate pi to 2 million digits. Do it both while plugged in and under battery power and post your results along with the notebook model,CPU type & speed, amount of memory and hard drive size & RPM. If we can get 20-30 results(hopefully more) to be statistically significant I'll compile and post the results here in a week or so.

I'll go 1st.

Also in the review but I figured it would be useful to post it here too.

 

The core duo speeds are all over. My 1.66 was any where from 1 25 to 1 31, whic isn't too far from the 2 ghz, seems like there should be more of a gap (more than 9 seconds).

 

hmm interesting conclusions..

on my m6805 1.8 AMD643000+, I took out one stick of ram 256mB pc2700 ram and the time it takes to calculate 2m digits jumped from 1:49 on ac to 2:05..thats 16 more seconds >_<

on my recent desktop build, it calculated in 1:01 seconds.

I cant wait til my new mt40 2.2ghz comes in for the averatec, I hope it will match or beat my home built oc'd desktop

 

Interestingly, my E1505 Core Duo 2.0Ghz is faster than my Dimension 9100 with Dual Core 3.0Ghz!!!

E1505: Core Duo 2.0Ghz, 2GB RAM, 100GB HDD 1min12sec.
Dim 9100: Pentium D 3.0Ghz, 2GB RAM, 300GB HDD 1min36sec.

It was interesting to note that my E1505, when running SuperPi, was running core0 at 60% and core1 at 40%, yet my Dim9100 would run each core at 50%.

Why would my E1505 be faster than my desktop? Any ideas?

Thanks!

Are these good values for this spec? Im upgrading it to 1.2gb ram soon and will like to see how it compares..

 

the averatec did it in 1:35 after the mt 40 upgrade
