    Anyone feel like playing?
    Saw this at Bit-tech and thought it was interesting.

    The new version of WinRAR has a benchmark test (look under "Tools"), which makes for an interesting way to compare performance.
    Run the test for 1 minute (exactly!!) and see how you do.

    w00t!
    New results just posted and I'm #13 on the leaderboard.
    Hmmm....pull out a stick of RAM, tighten the timings and I'll bet I can crack the top ten.

    Im rather worried by my score compared with yours Clocker, we all know 64 bit rawks but i didn't think it rawked so much it would nearly triple the score on my pc.



    Specs:

    Intel P4 3.4Ghz with HT
    1GB of PC3200 Ram
    Nvidia Geforce FX 5700 (256mb)

    All at stock.

    Not the best but only cost me £200 ($400).

    Peerzy, you've been listening to Intel again, haven't you?

    Mine's a mere 3000+ running at 2115MHz (9x235MHz) and I got a score over 460.

    BTW, the latest release version is Winrar 3.42

    For 200 British space coins it was a bargin, although i now know never to get Intel, noy only would this PC have been £1200 new but its about half as fast as an AMD counterpart thats half the price.

    I think im going to comit virtual suicide

    Looks about right, nearly as good as Peerzy's.

    The whole test is memory intensive, so it is really just measuring memory bandwidth.

    @Peerzy, would you like a knife or a rope?

    I went with the tried and tested jump off a cliff GTA style, only to find the makers had finally made it so i could swim, so in the end i drowned :virtualcry:
