RC5/OGR Benchmarks, 3 systems

[grimzod]

I've built a few systems this week and benchmarked all of them with RC5/OGR:

1. single AMD 1.2ghz 266fsb [Retail + Retail HSF] CPU (41c/idle), ASUS A7M266 Motherboard (27c idle), 524meg ddr 266fsb generic nanya chips, OS: Win98SE, DX7

Result: 4,254,956 keys/sec 8,643,327 nodes/sec
rg/hb re-pair II core #6 garsp 5.13-A core #0

2. dual INTEL 1.266 tualatin 512cache p3-s (OEM), p3tde6 motherboard (non-INTEL chipset), 1 gig (2-512s) viking reg/ecc memory PC133, OS: Win2k Pro SP1:

Result: 3,595,012 keys/sec 8,864,260 nodes/sec
rg core #2 garsp 5.13-A core #0
7,190,024 combined 17,728,520 combined (both processors, that is)

3. Dual P4 Xeon 1.7ghz 256cache (OEM), 2 gig kingston value-RDRAM non-ecc pc800, p4dc6 motherboard (non-INTEL chipset), OS: Win2k PRo SP1:

Result: 2,407,581 keys/sec 5,836,650 nodes/sec
nb class 7 #8 core garsp 5.13-A core #0
4,815,162 combined 11,673,300 combined (both processors, that is)

Well...the P4 Xeon sucks as far as this benchmark is concerned.

NE1 who wants a stable number cruncher should go with the AMD or the Tualatin P3-S (but as far as price is concerned I say they are the same or very close...b/c you'd have to have 2 complete AMD systems to match or surpass the Tualatin dual system here...though for what the Tualatins cost that is certainly possible).

Any comments?

The dual P4 Xeon needs to be doing Seti ASAP!

That dual Tualatin system will cost your first born and then some more. I'd be willing to bet you could easily build 2 AMD systems for the same $$, but that is a fine herd/fleet you have there. I realize it doesn't exist yet, but the Athlon MPX should be a monster on a $/CPU hprsepower basis.

P. S. Overclcok that TBird, it may be good for 1.5 or so.

Woot! Thanks for the P4 numbers.
