You can go here to see my results: http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/81689 The only app I had running was Finder and Geekbench (obviously). Not quite sure what to make of the results. Any body want to chime in?
Wow..not bad at all! Here are mine: (Not New Macbooks mind you) Geekbench Score 2564 Version Geekbench 2.0.19 Platform Mac OS X x86 (32-bit) Operating System Mac OS X 10.5.5 (Build 9F33) Processor Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T7200 @ 2.00GHz Model MacBook (Late 2006) Memory 2.00 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM Integer Score 2204

And this, my friends, is why Macs are so much better. Geekbench Score 1361 Version Geekbench 2.0.19 Platform Windows x86 (32-bit) Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Professional Processor Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz Model Dell Inc. Dell DV051 Memory 1014 MB 533 MHz
True, but I spent about $1000 for this computer in mid-2006, and could have instead gotten an iMac (at a slightly higher price) that would run at around 2337.
new macbook (lower model 2.0ghz) with only finder open and right after a restart http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/81708
It's a little depressing Apple didn't go with the P8400 (2.26 GHz) for the low end model. We're using Montevina P Series Penryn processors now.
That's interesting. Its not that far from my Mac Mini; http://browse.geekbench.ca/user/reclusivemonkey/profile
I think I'm right in saying Geekbench doesn't test the GPU. Heres the results of my 2.4Ghz http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/81724 I'm installing my 7200rpm drive a little later (if I can find a screw small enough!) Will post back with updated results.
So after comparing the results it seems the 2.4 has a nice speed advantage, but is it enough to justify the price gap? I think it's a matter of preference but either way you really can't go wrong. Both machines are stunning.
Seems pretty similar to my 2.4 alu iMac http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/81794 Looks like the 2GB of DDR3 outperforms my 4GB of DDR2 if I am reading correctly (not an expert by any means)
The GMA X3100 pulls about 800-900 in 3DMark 06 using the default. It is synthetic but I highly doubted Apple's it's 5x faster then other IGPs.
here is my geekbench!!! For late 2007 model i figured it would be worse an what it was. im kind of HAPPY that the performance is not that much better than mine. i just got it a few months ago and did not want to have to upgrade to the new one dont have the money to. lol
You guys are gonna laugh... My 2001 PC desktop, P4 1.7GHz, 1GB RAM, Geekbenches at about 770 with nothing running. I know I'm way overdue to upgrade. I'll be buying a MacBook shortly; I just want to see what happens at the WWDC.
