Hi Guys,
To continue from a post from last year, I'd like to see how much faster these new Core 2 Duo chips are at performing the given Photoshop test.
Using Photoshop CS or CS2 (or PS 7)
==================================================
1.) Download the test image from http://powerthings.com/pics/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
Use a stop watch or manual timer to see how long it takes to apply this filter
In most cases as before, computer with more memory seems to perform a bit better. CS2 gives the fastest scores, then CS, and PS7 after that.
Link to the thread from last year is HERE
In case the first link for the picture does not work, it can also be downloaded with the given link of: Test Image
For comparison of Intel's "older" chip, the score of my dual-core Pentium D - 3.0 GHz w/ 2 GB Ram is 48 seconds.
thanks!
