Benchmarks

[clocker]

Anyone feel like playing?
Saw this at Bit-tech (http://70.84.186.147/showthread.php?t=57253&page=1&pp=20) and thought it was interesting.

The new version of WinRAR (http://rarlab.com/rar/wrar330.exe) 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 (http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar342.exe)

:cry: :cry: :cry:

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 :ohmy:

We shall mourn you then.

Digitally.

Im selling e-flowers if your interested, all payments go to my paypal account and the 'Get Peerzy Pissed' fund :P

[clocker]

Sign me up for the nicest garland you have.

I'll get the fund rolling.

Theoretically.

here is mine:(Looks about right, nearly as good as Peerzy's. :rolleyes:

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:

[Spicker]

hmm peerzy thers something wrong with ur results...ur should be wayy higher...

i got 305 with my samsung ram running at stock 200mhz and my cpu at [email protected]

btw i did not tweak the ram timings or anything i can probably hit 350 or so...if i did some ocing to ram and etc.

[tesco]

Hmm, i only got 10mb completed.
current kb/s is 141
resulting kb/s won't show. :blink: guess it's just that low :P

athlon xp 2200+

i wonder what a P4 1.7ghz would get on this? (equivelent price at time i boguht this processor).

the only tweaking u need to do is make sure u close all other programs before doing a benchmark :lol: :01:

Thats not possible at the moment, so I'll just take the lower score, we all know it would benchmark higher than that, and I'm not looking for any cookies. Besides, Clockers would kick my ass regardless :naughty:

[Spicker]

Well lets change the game around...

this will be the interweb's first bencmark contest that the winner is the person with the lowest score. :) The winner gets a big fat cyber cookie.

so far ross is in the lead :lol:

264 with a Sempron 2800+ (2 GHz) & 768 MB PC2700 :P

but....that leaves me out of the running for the cyber cookie :(
