I get 602 in Firefox. I tried Safari but it's not faster than Firefox and the UI is stupid. I also have a mutual dislike of anything apple.

Agreed, but the Ipod is not that bad.

Chrome 2.0 dev channel release, score: 2268

System: i7-920 CPU, 6GB of RAM, EVGA X58 motherboard.



I don't think the Futuremark folks are updating their database. Notice how in the bottom left corner it shows someone's "Fastest system" as Safari 4.0 with score of 2264.

Yet another Futuremark gimmick: "this is the fastest processor and graphics card, GET IT". Like having GeForce GTX 280 has anything to do with browser performance.

It'll be weird if someone was able to get a web browser to handle page rendering through the use of GPGPUs. At least once your connection has downloaded the content, it'll display really quick. LOL.

People tend to forget that Web browser today runs applications based on Java,Flash, ect. Check the Quake Live for example.

sry for post after post ;/

I have a fairly low-end system and was running a defrag lol. Might do it again, probably not a good idea to run stuff like that during a benchmark I also have a measly 2GB RAM lol

I still can't see why a browser would need more than one core. Its supposed to be lightweight and efficient.

For people doing heavy multiple things on each browser maybe. Plus it takes stress off the one core to to allow the browser to run at a fast pace.
