lol G3258 gives really strange results, 0.03v and the ST number never seems to change with different GHz clocks.

It scales like this for me. (adds an average of 38 every 100 Mhz)
4.0 - 1533
4.1 - 1572
4.2 - 1608
4.3 - 1645
4.4 - 1686
4.5 - 1725
4.6 - 1761
and apparently
5.014 - 1916 for Dufus which is pretty much, < 38 Score per 100 MHz.

That's very interesting as it shows nearly linear scaling. Did mem clock increase too?

It's an insider test mule. I built it back in September to use on the W10 insider program. It has had all of the builds auto-installed since then. They may not have wanted the software on there with the release builds, since I was a beta tester?

Possibly, though my Win10 install is also a test mule, dating back to build 9926 or so . . . or 9874 or 9784 or whatever was the preceeding build.

My G3258 @ a tiny bit less than 4.7GHz got 1805 in the post right after Dufus'. What is your memory speed?

I just got Windows 10 and don't have the media, so this is about as far as I care to go... don't want to bork anything and have to go back to Win7. I'm sure there are faster FX's, but I have to be in the 99th percentile. :awe:

5.278GHz (203 x 26) - 1251 / 7837


Nice....

Just got a G3258 to experiment on but unfortunately have to go overseas for a while.

Just a quick run at ~1.47V, 2 cores at 29x


Noticed something odd with MT scores when affinity is set to threads -1 with 2C/4T CPU. Maybe someone can confirm.

Those two little cores are just going to town!

You all realize someone in here will most likely break 2000 single thread within the next month? Just have to wait for the 66&6700K's to start rolling it.

Doesn't surprise me.

Wish I still had my FX 8320E, I read on another forum that performance drops at certain clocks (like 4.1GHz, 4.5GHz, 4.7GHz). Well I'll keep an eye out for CPU-Z bench results for the FX 83**- that would show if CPU-Z bench is actually working correctly or not.

why wouldn't it? Intel has fantastic branch prediction and there's no non-frequency-scaling cache to hold it back.

I guess because of the RAM?

the branch prediction helps that.

This has nothing to do with branch prediction as the benchmark code is very small.

What I want to find out is whether it has a small or large mem footprint, as so many here observed what could be a memory latency dependency. What you likely meant are prefetchers. Indeed with a large mem footprint an older CPU with worse or no prefetchers would scale less than linear.

According to Nero24 of Planet3dnow.de the CPU-Z author said, that the benchmark calculates a landscape using Perlin noise with scalar SSE (64bit) or x87 (32bit).

Edit:
The bench is procedural landscape generator based on a Perlin noise. It is a mix of integer operations and single precision float operations. It is pure VC++, and I let Visual Studio optimizer do the job. As far as I can see, the x32 compiler uses x86 & x87, and the x64 version uses scalar SIMD (but I need to double check that point). The x64 version is much faster anyway. The result of the computation is a 3D landscape that will be displayed in the next-to-come GPU bench.
http://www.planet3dnow.de/vbulletin...hmark-Update?p=5033059&viewfull=1#post5033059

there is indeed a problem with the dual core systems. The benchmark uses a thread pool to dispatch the tasks to the cores, and the management of that thread pool seems to occupy a core in a manner that the scheduler does not affect another task to it. So in a dual core system, two threads are created, and affected to the same core, so the result of the computation is the same as for the single thread test. I already work on a fix.

Yay, we are getting a fix.

So i got really slow 1.25V RAM set to high timings. It is advertised as 9-9-9-24 (1600) but I can't get it to run stable at XMP settings, for whatever reason. This OC isn't stable it bluescreens after a few minutes of prime95, with temps climbing up to (85°C/79°C). I don't know if voltage will stabilize it at this point or just raise the temperatures. Also bench score is always highest the first time, so I didn't run it multiple times.

Messing around with an older laptop. Overclocked LLano A8-3500M from 1.5GHz to 2.96GHz. Everything loads so much faster with the overclock, it's crazy. Currently gimped running single channel memory. Surprisingly K10stat still works on Win10:

Wow, I have an A8-3500M just sitting around too, waiting to replace my 3400M. Nice OC! Mine reaches a smallish 1.7GHz OC'd, but slightly undervolted too.

Thanks! This HP DV6's heatsink is a pain to get to compared with a previous Lenovo laptop that had the same CPU. So it's probably still using the crap, deteriorated factory paste.

I sent this email to CPUID, still have not heard back:

Firstly, I want to thank you all for the wonderful software that many of us use daily. HWMonitor and CPU-Z are invaluable!

I am writing to ask a question in regards to the new Bench tab, and more specifically the Stress button which creates 100% utilization. Would you mind sharing how exactly the 100% utilization is achieved? I ask because IF it utilizes AVX instructions, overclocked 22 and 14nm CPUs can be damaged from current draw.

I understand if you'd prefer not to answer the question exactly, but if you could please confirm whether or not AVX is utilized in the manner that is damaging to overclocked CPUs?

Thanks!

Still curious. Anyone here know?

Bench uses SSE instuctions which was already answered on the previous page.

Another 2/2 Pentium where the MT score x64 doesn't work, ST score is pretty respectable, especially considering that the Core 2 Duos Overclocked like crazy. (also 27.1 Score per (100 Mhz) Clock, Haswell 38, Skylake 41)

5-5-5-18 @ 800 MHz DDR2 1.8V

Based on the information that has been posted here, it appears that two things are happening:

1). Everyone is seeing MT results that are (at best) equal to n-1/n * 100% of what they should be seeing. For example, someone with a quad is seeing 75% of the MT result that they should get for the chip
2). Anyone using two logical cores is seeing LESS performance than 50% since the benchmark is loading up an extra background thread on one core and doing practically nothing with the second core

Should be interesting to see what the fix does to address the problem. Then I'll know if my estimates are correct.

btw, I reran it at 4.7 GHz: 1141/3332

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=132437&d=1440227194

The memory for my first run was DDR3-1600 CL9 (better than I thought, oh well)
The memory for my 4.7 GHz run was DDR3-2400 CL10
