I'm in the process of updating & fixing the SETI FAQ @ teamanandtech.com with Virges help ,one thing that is noticeably lacking are WU times for more recent faster CPU's (P4's & Athlons with DDR) ,this is what I've got to add so far ,(from the WU time page )

XP1600 PC133 RAM 4.4hrs
XP2000 DDR333 RAM 3.8hrs
XP2200 DDR333 RAM 3.5hrs
Duron 1.2 GHz PC133 RAM 5hrs
Celeron 366 @ 550 10.5hrs
Pentium 233MMX @ 266 30.5hrs (odd 2 out 😉)
Athlon 1.4GHz PC133 5hrs

Assuming using the CLI ,and an average AR WU ,doesn't have to be too precise.
Give cpu speed/model number,RAM type & speed & WU time ,nothing more!

Some more of the lower clocked PIII times wouldn't go a miss either
TIA 🙂
 
XP 1600+ @ 2100+ (1753mhz) w/ DDR 2700 ~ 2:45 - 3:15 Win2kprof
XP 1600+ @ 1800+ (1553mhz) w/PC133 (147mhz) ~ 3:30 - 4:00 Win2kprof
Duron 600 @ 979 (150fsb) ~ 6:00 - 7:00 Win2kprof
Celeron 400 ~ 16:00 Win98FE
Pentium 133 ~ 1 - 4 DAYS :Q Win98FE

That's not too precise, but about average on my rigs.

EDIT: OS
 
AMD XP1800+ DDR PC2100 RAM 4 hrs
P3 1.24 GHZ PC133 RAM 5 hrs
P3 933 Mhz PC133 RAM 6.5 hrs
 
Athlon Classic 800 PC100 (I think) 512k cache w/ Linux Static client: 8.5 hours
I'll throw in my P-MMX when I get home.
 
Didn't see a 0.417 AR done yet but my new P4 2.4G / OC to 2.67G (and hopefully higher by the weekend) did complete a 0.418 AR today:

2002 Oct 30 08:35am 9.021,17.71 0.418 Smoke #5 2:50

So the times could get very complicated if OCed systems were included. :Q

Where Dual & Quad are noted, time is per WU per CPU and an average across the two/four.
 
Anyone have a time for a Athlon XP 1600+@2GHz (166MHz FSB) on any platform?






/me is thinking of a purchase/trade. 😉

Wow! ,thanks guys🙂 ,I'll wade through the info tomorrow.

Smokeball
Overclocked times are cool too🙂 ,though like you said it will complicate matters a little😉
 
The machine I'm typing this reply on is a 1600+ XP (locked) running at 172FSB.

Sisoft Sandra identifys it as a 2200+ XP 😀
 
First off, to quote networkman 🙂 "Where Dual & Quad are noted, time is per WU per CPU and an average across the two/four."

Dual P-133, 128meg, Win2k: 3d 11h28m

P-III 700, 192 meg, Win XP 10h16m (HP, and again, need I say more?)

These are all average times.
 
Duron 1.2 GHz PC133 RAM

I think that 5 hours is incorrect.

I have one that is soldered in and it appears that the time is longer. When I crosscompare the same OS setup of a P-3 800 that time is in the ballpark but not the duron 1.2

My 1600+ at 166/166 (1750MHz) does the Team Lamb Chop 0.417 test WU in 3:15. Incidentally, I did ask Evan Leib to consider the TLC test WU as a benchmark for nForce2, pointing out that SETI@Home CLI is sensitive to bandwidth and also latency. Here's hoping... 🙂

BTW, I've cranked my CPU fan down to 7 volts and am running my 1600+ at stock speed lately to reduce the noise level until I can budget for a better heatsink that can cool it at 166/166 without so much noise. That's costing me about 1 WU per day.

That Duron 1.2GHz time wasn't a guess,that is the time it was doing WU's in😛 ,only thing I forgot to mention about it is that it is on a 133MHz FSB.
It was at 1.26GHz & doing WU's in about 4hrs 50 mins ,I'll dig out some SETIQ logs if needed

I have a P-3 600E overclocked at 800 giving a 133 bus speed and 133 memory Cas 3.
I have a Duron 850 on a K7SEM with 133 memory Cas 3. The speed is listed as supposedly 1200. Now I do not know how the overclock is achieved either by pencil lead trick or by changing the bus speed. If by bus then the bus speed would be 141mhz.

First off I use what I could to get up and running as quickly as possible. This was a diskless Linux used as a router hacked to run SETI and the owner doesn't know lots and says that it is not optomised and may lose 15%-20% cause of hardware.

Now what I can get is percentage completed and how many seconds has been run.

What I get is horrable times.
However the time is near the same for both systems.
Right now the Pentium 3 is ~43% completed at 16046 seconds. So what I do is take 100% or 100/42.766=2.338 and 2.338x16046seconds= 37520/60seconds=625minutes 625minutes/60= ~10.442 hours

Now if I do the same for the Duron 37.2% and 13852 seconds gives ...
10.34 hours

As you can see the times are similar.

Now if I look at a time for a Pentium 3 that is similar it is close or you can X percent difference the amount stated by other posters.
However when you compare the work times for the P-3 and the Duron they are the same.
But when you compare THIS Duron to the Duron time you posted it is like 50% off.

This leaves one of 4 things.
1)My duron is overclocked by pencil instead of bus
2)The cache makes a world of difference cause of this strange hacked FreeSCO Linux router OS
3)The OS has been optimised somehow in favor of the P-3 setup
4)A 5 hour work time is remembered incorrect.

Ok I have a old Duron that came from RC/Roy via Geoffs. I don't know anything about it except it is 700 and the boot sped says 927, I don't know if this is just bus or lead pencil and bus since the items are not in the bios.
(I put this stuff up as soon as possible for the MTR and left well enough alone. Will make alterations after.)
Time for this configuration AND this uses VC RAM that makes it a little faster.
~51% completed 17183 ... ~9.31 hours

Now This time is lower then the K7SEM 1200 soldered in duron.

1) K7SEM soldered in SUCKS or K7SEM MB sucks or this runs a 100 bus and pencil trick. Or BIOS helps lie like a salesman.

2)From my boards in front of me and this Linux OS a 5 hour time is wrong.
3)I'm not running this diskless OS for seti unless I have to.

A)Are cas 2 ram used to get 5 hour work unit. Or VC ram similar enough in speed increase and still 5 hour is wrong.

Also using this page and using ratios the work time comes out to ~5 1/2 hours.

Athlon XP 1500+, 512mb, Win2kProf - 3h 52m avarage
Intel Pentium 3 866, 512mb, Win2kProf - 7h 11m avarage
Intel Pentium 3 667, 256mb, WinXPProf - 9h 20m avarage

The avarages are from my queue, total WUs done 2,404... pretty truthful avarage then 🙂

Regards,
 
This thread shows how much that 1600XP chip is worth it's weight in gold.

Mech, did you have to bump the speed down when you slowed the CPU fan down? Did it get unstable or something?

Wait 'til Capt'n Rick of TeAm Smokeball checks into this thread. He's running a unlocked 1600+ @ 9 X 208FSB as of last night. He was able to run SiSandra at 211FSB but got occasional lockups. Runs stable @ 208FSB. :Q
 
:Q:Q:Q ,OMG Smokeball that's awesome!:Q😀😎

A few points

1.A duron from 1Ghz upwards uses the same core as the AthlonXP ,clock for clock the Duron'XP' thrashes even the Athlon Thunderbird (in SETI) ,let alone the Duron 'thunderbird'!:Q.I was pleasantly stunned when I 1st ran SETI on it😉.Its 5hrs/WU matched that of my fathers PC ,an Athlon Tbird 1.4GHz with CL2 RAM

2.My Duron was running on a KT133a chipset which has lower latency & higher memory bandwidth than the SiS chipset.

3.The RAM is CL2 ,set to CAS 2-2-2,4way interleave,Turbo

4.A PIII 800 should do WU's in at least 8.5 hrs😉 ,I'm using 1 at work ,CL3 RAM I think ,810 chipset,when not being used it does av AR WU's in about 8.5 hrs

Still, the bulk of the lower WU time is down to the Duron being XP based.
Oh yeah ,& if you look here you'll see some WU times for that Duron.Now some of those WU times are on the high side (nr 6hrs) because my mother was using the computer & sometimes playing games with it.If you look back through the history you might find some more WU times from that rig ,though most went to my Q before going to that Q when it was at my place.

Btw ,even when I had a Duron 1.1 GHz @ 1177MHz (11x107) I was still getting just a touch over 5hrs/WU ,when it was at 8.5x145MHz ,1233MHz i was getting about 4hrs 50mins/WU 🙂

Now if only I could work out how to get SETIQ history to go further back I could show more WU times!🙂.............
