Toms Hardware features SETI as a benchmark.

Shows results from the high-end processors. Makes me seriously want 4 Opterons!!! 34 Minute WUs!!
Nice place to get a general idea of where your times should be tho.

The WUs aren't 34 minutes.

They still took 2h 16 mins each, but 4 were completed in that time rather than 1.

Still rather nice.🙂

It's about time someone used seti as a bench. We should start clamouring for Anand to include it in AT's suite. Afterall, we're all crunching under his name 🙂

Tom's Hardware... ugh. :frown:

Still would like to see a more reputable site (*cough* AnandTech *cough*) do some DC benchies. 😉

2nd that thought, Tom's tends to use very biased benches (and are often rumored to get added kick backs from some of their reviewed products)

2:16 is kinda weak 🙂. I would be more impressed if it did 4-1:30 min WU's

This was when Tom did a test of a dual opteron and got 1:08 per wu. or 2:16 per WU per processor.

Yeah it has been mentioned before but its always worth while bringing it back up again for newbie's & slackers who missed it 1st time round😉😉

Thanks xemus🙂
