What's the best benchmark utility to use for a dual Celeron Abit BP6 running Win2K?
Any other performance enhancing tweaks, short of overclocking? The OS is already configured as an ACPI Multiprocessor, but how many app's can make use of this arrangement, or does Win2K usually manage the CPU load-sharing for all app's? I can't tell if I'm getting anything extra outta this kit.
I tried FreshDiagnose v.1.5, and it doesn't seem to think I have an ACPI config, or thermal monitoring support, which are both inaccurate readings (Motherboard Monitor has no problem reading the sensors). It looks like my CPU benchmark is ranking right where only one of the 466 Celerons would stand alone compared to other single CPU's.
So is this multiprocessor rig a waste of time/money/effort?
Thanks, splintr
