your scores are really really low

<snip>

stock GPU clocks

<snip>

thats just an 8800GTS it shouldn't even look at your card

It doesn't matter whether his scores are low or high, the point is he is setting up a comparison of AMD PII vs Intel Q9XXX. It is meant to show the comparisons between the two with the same setup.

next, you are running Windows XP which benchmarks better. Then you also have everything toned down in XP to get even higher benchmarks. You do not know what he did with Vista when he is comparing the two, he could've just left all the glam on. Once again, he's doing a comparison between AMD & Intel.

The 01 score is so low because of Vista.

And your G92 should actually be benching higher than my HD 4850 for 06.

So my scores are actually about where they should be.

The 4850 is roughly equal to the 8800gts. A bit more powerful but not by much, w/ the oc on the gts they are pretty much equal. Your phenom oc'd further, and your using xp as opposed to vista. Considering all that, both your scores seem about in line w/ each other. Your only about 1k above on each of those (actually only 700 on 3dk, which could actually easily be made up w/ tweaks).

Yeah, Vista sucks in 01 and Aquamark, or really anything that's DX8 :toast:

Reinstalling Vista on my test bench for the AMD testing as we speak, so far I'm going to be adding the following tests:

Crysis (at maybe 5 different combinations of settings)
Left 4 Dead (at a few difference settings)
Devil May Cry bench (maybe)
Sandra
Ripping a few DVDs
Converting movies for my ipod since it takes a while.
CrystalMark
Geekbench
Winrar (maybe)

If there's anything specific anyone else wants to see, let me know soon please.

First post has been updated with new results. There are a few game benchies I still need to do, but I need to download the games first ;)

Strange results. The Phenom II whopping the QX9650 in Crysis. Didn't think I'd see that!

Yeah something went wrong there on the qx system. Very uneven and unlikely scores there.

Wow that means that QX9650 is not even nowhere near worth the extra 800$ more than the Phenom II.

q9650 has a multi of 11 i think from factory ... do the math

Hey sno, what's your vcore on the 940 @3.8ghz? Also, what have you heard about vcore max on these chips? I'm not asking in terms of heat, but more about electron migration. Anything?

It needed 1.52v. I don't know where the ideal threshold is yet though.

I'll rerun the AMD tests after class today then. For the 3rd time.


I'll add the CPU bench for Crysis as well, at the same list of settings.

I tried to get settings on each system as close as possible for a fair comparison. I've had this done for a week or two now, but due to RL haven't been able to get it posted until now.


Denab System:
Phenom II 940 @ 254*15
Gigabyte MA790GP-DS4H
2x1gb Team Xtreem PC8000 @ 501mhz, 4-4-4-10 2T
Gigabyte HD 4850 @ 750/1100mhz, 8.12 driver
Gigabyte ODIN Pro 1200w
WD Raptor 36gb
Windows Vista Ultimate


Yorkfield System:
QX9650 @ 401*9.5
Gigabyte EP45-UD3P
2x1gb Team Xtreem PC8000 @ 501mhz, 4-4-4-10 2T
Gigabyte HD 4850 @ 750/1100mhz, 8.12 driver
Gigabyte ODIN Pro 1200w
WD Raptor 36gb
Windows Vista Ultimate



*For PCMark 05, an ACARD ANS-9010 and a GTX 280 @ 770/1230 were subbed. That's why the scores are so high. That test could have gone either way though, as finicky as the benchmark is with no tweaking added.

I've been working on a 4ghz shootout, and have the QX9650 part finished and half of the Denab part, but my single stage decided to crap out so I need to fix it first.

good banch and good work.

I want write this.
The Phenom 940 have one best IPC not with timings DDR2 4-4-4-12, but best IPC with max possible speed ram and NB work good if have clock double of ram.
Ram 1Ghz, NB 2GHz, ram 1,250Ghz, NB 2,5GHz.

See this:

http://www.hwupgrade.it/forum/showpost.php?p=25996147&postcount=636

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=816552

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=816538

http://www.hwbot.org/compare.do?resultId=816537

This is winrar with one 1,5TB Seagate Barracuda (single HD and 4GHz OC but NB 2,850GHz and DDR2@1250MHz)



This is very nice... Photoworxx Everest at 4,1GHz

Very high test seems correct for me. Memory bandwidth is a huge factor when it comes to playing at that setting.

I find it interesting that DVDRip was just over 20% faster on PII: Does it use all 4 cores?

It's more then just a few % faster: that's a significant margin, there.

I have a good bit of more Sandra data I haven't posted yet. I'll sift through it and get it posted around lunchtime. And, of course, keep testing, testing, testing :)


*Edit: And updated with all the data I have currently. Stay tuned, lots more incoming as I find time :toast:
