SETI - Tom test newest P4 and chipset

[CyberDuck]

Looks like there is some really nice times for the newest P4:

(1:34 for a 0.417 AR WU)

Wow, great time!

The only bad part is that the price for a barebones system like that would probably be close to $1500.

 

[Robor]

Dasm! That's almost 16 WU's per day from a single CPU system! :Q

 

[BadThad]

Great time...but a lotta cash!

 

[JWMiddleton]

:Q I could get rid of 5 machines with the output from this one box! :Q

Thanks for pointing us to that article CyberDuck! I am glad to see someone including SETI as a benchmark!!

It should bring the cost of the 3.06 Machine down a lot and there isn't much difference in the times

Wait 3 months and you will get that system for half the cash - the aliens won' run away

hehe very true

Great to see THG using SETI as a benchmark

I agree, I wish AT would use the standard SETI WU to test new chips and motherboard...... chipsets too. It's a good stability, and speed test. Longterm speed, not just short bursts in a game.

As it was I was shopping for upgrade material for a system and stopped by Abit to see what they had out new, wow the 875 boards were out then I hit Pricewatch, apparently they are barely hitting the retail channels, MSI, Intel, and Asus were the only ones in the channel, running from $175 - $225. Oh well, since the upgrade isn't for my main machine it has to wait

Has anyone got some SETI benchmarks for P4s running on the SiS 655 chipset? I'm done upgrading my PC, but it never hurts to know...

I'm waiting for the midlle-range Gigabyte. Seems to have the best feature et.

this chipset is looking mighty fine, and i like what intel has to offer. i do hope other board makers come out with their versions to drive the $$ down. at current benchmarks, it looks great for SETI

 

[astroview]

looks pretty...

Now when do those P4's with 1 MB of cache and another die shrink come out, next year?

 

[LANMAN]

DUDE!!

Lanman --> ( I must resist... I must resist....)

Too bad I don't do SETI... those would be great times for a 3GHz system @ 1100 from the ground up (except software).

Wonder how they do on SoB?...

They must do quite nicely I would assume....I tell ya what, you order one, and a motherboard, and ship it to me and we can find out

 

[astroview]

Under linux console only how much would those times improve by?
