Measure your Notebook CPU Speed

Hi all,

I did Pi test on my inspiron 6000d laptop.

For 2M calculations
Plugged: 1m 51s
Unplugged: 1m 51s

This is awesome for my system configured by
Pentium M 1.6GB (2MB L2 cache,533 Mhz FSB)
512 MB DDR2(400 Mhz)
128MB X300 PCI graphics card
60GB 5400RPM Hard disk

 

Thanks so much for introducing me to superpi.
As a result I found out that my SpeedStepped Dell 510m 600MHz/2GHz portable was permanently stuck at 600MHz!
I gained control of it using the freeware SpeedSwitchXP and low and behold:

Before: 5mins 2secs
After: 2mins 9secs

Thankyou all!

Spec: Dell 510m 600MHz/2GHz; 60 Gb HDD (speed unknown); 512Mb RAM; On AC power running at 2GHz.

and is this logical?

Just for fun, tested my old Toshiba 1675CDS (not that I am going to use it for anything except word processing).
Intel Celeron 550MHz, 192MB RAM, 5.7GB drive (??RPM), 8m 20s plugged (you thought 4:10 is ouch).
Also tested my new Dell Inspiron 6000d:

Wow, my laptop stinks.

Compaq Presario 3000

60gb hdd 5400

On AC: 3:05

My desktop running 2.0ghz, 1gb PC3200 kicked it's but at 1:48

I need to upgrade....[ ]

 

Interestingly enough, on my original BIOS revision there was no speed difference between battery and AC, but now on battery my CPU's max speed is limited to 1.0GHz instead of 2.0G. If I disable power management then it will run at full speed 2.0, but that's definitely a new behavior, and it definitely kills performance.

My office desktop P4 3.0HT 1GB ram

Just why does Intel bother us with P4's? Why not putting Pentium M's in all desktops and laptops?

Now I am confused, on my desktop Pentium IV 2,8GHz core Northwoodon Intel 865PGA board with 1 GB Kingstone DDR333, WD 120GB 7200rmp ata 133 the result is 1m 59s.
I would expect about half of the time in comparation to 1,4GHz Celeron above or 1,5GHz Centrino in my note.

Does not math speed 100% depend on frequency? How it it possible that double frequency does not mean double speed in math operations?

It seems this benchmark is a little bit confusing dont you think?

As far as the notebook goes, I know its not a super computer by any means, are those Semi decent times for what its spec'd out as??

 

i did not know that the celeron M 1.4 ghz could compare to the pentium M like that...i think i want one....

Yes, that's the infamous "Gateway 7000 power-saving-features-that-castrate-your-processor in action."

I guess when Gateway bought eMachines, I should have run away, eh?

Why is my computer doing it so slowly?

I got 2 minutes 4 seconds for the SuperPi calculation and I have a 2.0 GHz Dothan 755 processor and 2 GB of RAM. I'm sad now. These less powferful Thinkpads are killing me

Nothing running in the background other than ZoneAlarm, McAfee Enterprise, Easy SMTP and strings of IBM stuff (can't believe how much IBM stuff loads up the machine on boot up). Seems the norm for this processor should be a few seconds faster?

Hi guys,

I'm new to this forum after using it to research my new laptop. Got it a few days ago.

Compaq R4000
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (2.0 GHz)
512 MB memory
15.4" WXGA screen
80 GB 4200 rpm HD

So here are the results:
Plugged in: 1:50
On battery: 3:25 (sheesh!)

Talk about a serious performance loss!

Oh well! It's plugged in all the time anyways.

How did you determine that your CPU clock speed was locked at 800. I have the same setup as you.
