*Edit*
Thanks to Klah for putting me on the right path with this.

Here are my times with the "Money Pit" rig in my sig.

1M = 52 seconds
8M = 9:51


________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I DL'd this new (to me...) benchmark. *shrug* I ran it. *more shrug* Ooooooooooooo-kaaaaaaaaaaay. :confused:

What size/length was I supposed to use? what's a good score? Or is it not used that way? Is it used like P95 TT where you just attempt to fry the CPU?

Usually I see 1M and 2M figures posted.

But here are some 8M figures from Macci for comparison:

Some SuperPi 8M numbers we can use to compare em:
NW @4.8GHz (300x16 5:4 2-2-2-5) = 5min 34sec
Prescott @4.5GHz (281.5x16 5:4 2-2-2-5) = 5min 33sec

Just do a search for 'super pi' at xtremesystems.org, ocforums.com etc. and you will find hundreds of results to compare with.

Let us know your 8M result!

Thanks Klah!!! I will run the 8M one. Should I do that w/o anything else running or using any other apps? I would guess "yes", right?

It does run the cpu at 100% so performing other tasks would increase your time.

My 8M result is 9:51

Pretty sad next to the 4.8GHz P4....but not bad, I suppose. :) Is that decent? Average? You just wait...My AthlonXP is drinking MILK, and someday, he's gonna grow up to be an Athlon64 processor...and he's gonna whoop-ass!! :D

Cool!!!

My 1M speed is 52 seconds. :)

Obviously, this benchmark is about more than raw clockspeed, since the A64s hold the top spots and they are "only" at 2.2-2.3GHz.

Dang....makes me want to build that A64 rig! :Q

*must hold out for NF3250...must hold out for NF3250...must hold out for NF3250...must hold out for NF3250...must hold out for NF3250...*

Not too bad. A stock 2500+ does around 10:30.

I know you were thinking about upgrading to an overclocked 2500+ a few weeks ago, Mike, but decided to wait until the next round to upgrade. I checked your system rig (2100+ @ 2.0ghz), and here's mine to compare:

2500+ @ 2.0ghz (183 x 11)
1024mb RAM
Epox 8RDA board

....and I get 52 seconds for the 1M benchmark. Go figure... :D

Yeah, I came this close to springing for a 2500/NF7-S combo. But then I started really looking closely and seeing that MOST folks were getting around 2200-2300MHz out of them.

So basically, MAYBE another 300MHz higher than I've got now, for another $185 spent. The price vs. performance didn't seem to balance out for me...so I went and spent $350 on a SCSI subsystem. :confused: It's fast as heck!

It's something I'd been itching to try for a long time...and it was worth it...mostly. Not to get too deep into it, but I'm SORT of pissed at myself for doing it. I'm not even tapping into 10% of what these Fujitsu MAS drives can do...kind of like buying a Ferrarri Enzo so you can sit on the 405 freeway in LA at rush hour.

LOL!

Anyway, I'm waiting for the bugs to be worked out of the NF3-250 boards before going to an A64 platform; the boards aren't even out yet. Typically, you get the board w/the initial bios. If the board is good, they'll release a bios update for it a month or so later. If the board is not so good, you wait longer for Rev 2.0, ala Abit NF7-S. First iteration wasn't so great, the Rev2.0 kicks absolute ass.

Currently, I'm playing Splinter Cell at 1280 x 1024, with details maxed and the two shadow settings at medium and 16x performance AF turned on, and get 60+FPS while moving around slowly and around 45FPS "under pressure." Don't think another 300MHz would do much to improve that.

Damn, I got off topic.

OK, back to the Pi!!! I need to change the title to "Post your results!"

35sec for the 1 million. I didnt feel like waiting for the 8 million. Perhaps tomorrow.

Super Pi

2500+ @ 2300 MHz (11.5 x 200) - 8RDA+ Rev 1.1

1M - 46 sec
8M - 8 min 22 sec

My 2100+ @ ~ 2325 MHz - NF7-S Rev 2

1M - 45sec

I like running PiFast as well. It seems more finicky and is a good first guage of stability when playing with overclocks. Every time PiFast fails, Prime95 eventually fails. Every time PiFast succeeds, Prime95 will go on and on.

edit: editing is fun!

8M = 7min 36 seconds

edit: my system couldn't run stable for more than an hour...will post more numbers when I get a better overclock :p

:Q Roger that!!! He's got that supercrazyfastoverclockedlikeamofo rig, though. :cool: Dang...35 seconds...I believe the world record is 26 seconds...held by someone with a FX51 rig....

Wow, nice scores! Nice OC, too; 25% is not too shabby. :)

I had the TV Tuner running for these but at stock speed:
1m - 45 sec
8m - 9 min 50 sec
