Intel 3.9GHz Conroe Scores 12.9 seconds for Super Pi 1mil

[sabersix1]

Check this out guys, Intel E6600 2.4GHz OC'ed to 3.910GHz @1.56Volts and scores 12.984 Seconds for 19 iterations of Calculating Super Pi to 1 Million Decimals using a Vapor Chill LS Cooler.

So is that a good score?

Big numbers dont mean much without something to compare them to.

No it not a good score. Someone posted (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=1458659&postcount=80) to say that FRUGGER's 3.9GHz has the same 12s time as coolaler's 2.3GHz does not make sense. I realised something is not right with FRUGGER's screenshots was being cutted off and suddenly I found something very interesting about the checksum, they both has EXACTLY same checksum D94B2AFD. FRUGGER screenshots are definitely fake!

No the low clock was because of the speed stepping. It downclocked after the test was complete.

And if you think youre on to something with the checksums, you might want to post that on that forum. No one else has mentioned it.

12.9 is VERY fast - AthlonXP is talking rubbish again.

I would hope most of you guys can see that for yourselves though.

You will need to have a really very close look on each screenshots and you will realised it not the same one when downclocked, new benchmark ran after downclocked, look at the initial value finished, loop 1 and loop 5 numbers. They all are not the same numbers, when new benchmark run each time, it will give different checksum but the same checksum with different numbers can tell you it really fake. :)

Nope I didnt talked rubbish, you misunderstanded me. :D

Maybe you never actual tried ran Super Pi to see what the real different with downclock and overclock Super Pi numbers.

Let me tell you that I ran the benchmarks myself. At default 2.2GHz 1M Super Pi completed 39s and when I overclocked it to 2.4GHz it completed at 35s. That 4s less when overclocked 200MHz.

If you looked at 2.3GHz Conroe numbers, it completed at 12.9s, that very good number but why did it have the same 12.9s when overclocked massively to 3.9GHz? I mean overclocked to incredible 1600MHz, it should score maybe 8s so why not that number?

[slaWter]

This is with a LS, I hope 3 - 3.3GHz are possible with not too much vcore with a good air cooler or some water... this would be my goal then.

[Superfly]

it completed at 12.9s, that very good number

that was all I was saying, I could'nt care less about the validity of the test, your post read as though you were saying 12.9 was slow!!!!!!!!

Wasn't it a new world record or something? Athlon you should read the whole thing before drawing any conclusions! :rolleyes:

That should be cake :)

[grimreefer]

2.3ghz was coolalers stock speed, he was overclocked to about 3.9ghz as well...hope ur listenin athlonxp1800!!!!!!
yea, its an amazing score, a 4ghz fx57 would get only about 15 seconds(the 3 seconds is actually a big difference in superpi)

[slaWter]

That should be cake :)

Hehe, I hope so!

[mullet]

wow, looks like he broke the WR. Awsome news thanks.

What about gaming benchmarks? Super pi is not interesting.

Well you know,
to some people, SuperPi is their life(pirate)

I have an Intel Extreme Edition 840 3.2GHz dual core with Hyper Threading.
I've never ajusted the CPU voltage before. From what I've been reading here, it
seems to help with major overclocking results. I'm watercooled and overclocked to 3.68GHz now and I've not even touched the cpu voltage.
I'm using an Asus P5N32-SLI Deluxe Intel Edition Motherbaord.

Super PI is performance, performance can translate to gaming :) Its an easier method to test pure CPU performance without any inteference from GPU's.

SuperPi is performance. But it's not that kind of performance you'll see in gaming.

welcome to the problems with synthtic benchmarks... you can never tell how an app is going to act untill you test it yourself...

SuperPi is also VERY memory latency sensitive.

SuperPi is also VERY memory latency sensitive.

And conroe has very low memory latency.

A processor has low memory latency?
