Geekbench scores? Does running it in 64bit yield a higher score?

[habitullence]

A couple of my fastest multi-OS systems score only about 34,000 in 32bit mode, but score over 40,000 in 64bit mode.

Does anyone know where I can find details of this build? I want one 😛

I assume that the old G5 mac was pretty bad at 64bit-stuff compared to its 32bit calculations. Since all scores are normalized to the performance of that computer ( = 1000 IIRC), this will mean that the newer architectures that are more 64bit focused will fare relatively better towards that benchmark then the 32bit one.

hey its my thread 😉

ive gone up from 10,000 to roughly 12,500 due to upgrading my processors 🙂

Can someone explain how the "1,1", "2,1", etc. designations work?

Never mind, found it in system info. Duh!
