Intel Centrino Core Duo CPU - Photoshop Test

Using Photoshop CS or CS2 (or PS 7)
=======================

1.) Download the test image from http://www.quicklance.com/test.jpg

2.) Save it to the computer and then open it up in Photoshop

3.) From there please apply a 'radial blur' with the settings at:

Amount = 100
Blur Method = Spin
Quality = Best

Using a stop watch / ps timer see how long it takes to apply this filter

I just want to see what these new core duos can really do.

Please list your cpu details, amount of ram, notebook used and the time it took for the test, just so we can get an idea of how the different core duos handle this task.

* test adapted from a different forum - if you have any suitable tests then please add to this thread *

 

Well, it's not a Core Duo, but it is a 'suitable' test I believe.

AMD Athlon 64 FX-60, 2.6GHz, 2x1MB

Using stopwatch:
43.48 seconds

Cheers

 

So now we're gonna start benchmarking photoshop? ;

 

1gb ram
1.66 duo core
sony vaio fe550g

55.13 seconds

 

That's not a bad time at all 311. I'm impressed.

 

i was just basing it on the fact that you blew me away by 12 seconds

 

Still fiddling with the alienware chazter?
How's the SuperPI on the FX-60?
Let's see if my T2400 can kick some a$$...results nxt week, when i get my lappy back

 

Yeah, the FX-60 is the fastest current desktop CPU on the market. Not a fair comparo. The Core Duo performs admirably.

Seb, I am indeed.

Chaz

 

Acer 5672WLMi.
Core Duo 1.66
1GB 533 RAM.
Timed by XNote stopwatch = 54.14 seconds.

This is pointless but fun!
*grins...

 

my old centrino 1.4 ghz and 512 mb= 2 and 30 secs

my core duo 2ghz and 2gig= 35 secs

 

Interestingly the core duo T2500 does kick the alienware FX-60 arse

 

I'll fly ahead of the Core Duo everywhere else though. But, that's besides the point. We need Duo scores in here.

 

My P4 3.06GHz did it in 61 seconds with CS2...guess thats not too bad huh? Maybe the video card can make a difference too.

 

I have the Sony Vaio SZ160 with 1.83 core dual and 2 G ram. Test result is:

52 seconds using built-in video card
52 seconds using nvidia 7400
51 seconds with firewall, antivirus, antispam turned off.

Dell 3Ghz with 1G Ram & Hyperthreading on. Test result is:
1.42 second

 

51.71 seconds. Stock SZ/120. No fresh reboot, outlook and a couple of IE windows running in the background.

Screenshot of task manager running during part of second run (not clocked, just wanted to see both CPU's at max

 

Umm I got 33 seconds I did it twice and I got the same result, I did it on my desktop but its still the fastest by a big margin.

 

Acer Aspire 5672WLMi
Core Duo 1,66GHz
2048MB RAM

52 seconds

 

how much should these #s be?? any standard available?? the lower the time, the better the processor?

 

Not a core duo, not even a centrino, but a Dell Inspiron 5100 with a P4 2.4ghz and 768mb ram and Photoshop CS1

2 min 31 sec.

Though I want to see Sonoma based notebooks' times, so I can decide if the Core Duo are indeed worth spending for.

 

P-M 1.86, 1GB RAM, 5400 RPM 40GB HD. CS2

2:13. seems slower than it should be

 

i9300,Pentium M 2.0Ghz, 1gb ram, geforce 6800 and 100gb 5400rpm HD.

1:19.

 

hmn same specs as you, FE 1.83 duo, 1gb ram and i got 47 secs 0_o
and on my p4 3.2ghz desktop i got 54 secs

 

Dell Inspiron 6400
1 Gig DDR Ram
100 GB HDD
Intel Core Duo 1.66

Time: ~49 seconds

I prefer not to disclose mine .
Will post when I get my SZ.
