XBench Results

MacBandit · Sep 23, 2002

Hey everyone download this xBench and post your complete results here.program

I'm especially interested in comparing the memory test results of my new Dual Ghz/DDR mac to the previous Dual Ghz.

Also before I get razed about this I know benchmarking isn't exactly and exact science and also this program is probably not 100% accurate. I'm just curious.

Sounds good to me. 100 is suppose to be the approx. speed of the developers Dual 800.

I wish I new what was killing some of my memmory tests. For example my copy rate is down by at least 20points of what it should be.

It will be interesting to see another test with the same machine and compare to see if we have the same problem.

Seems to be faster than the 550 TiBook I saw on here, especially in the processor stakes which is odd.

Well the copy rate is down by almost 60 on my machine, and your machine has a fill rate ten times faster than mine..

What's up with this 600, 700, 800 MFLOPS ****e? Isn't the dual GHz supposed to be capable of FIFTEEN GIGAFLOPPERS!?

The 550MHz is generally the slowest TiBook. Same slow bus speed as the 500, but less memory bandwidth than even the 400. The rev Bs used a different PPC series (7440?) than the As.

Your copy rate was very similar to mine but your fill rate was quite a bit lower. I was wondering did you do this on a fresh restart?

It's theoretically capable of something like that if everything in this world was perfect. In actual like I have seen somewhere around a max of 9 GigaFlops. I don't think this program is very dual processor or altivec aware that's why it has the low ratings.

I did state at the begining of the thread that benchmarking is not exact. Basically all we're achieving here is an equally flawed and irrelevant score that we can compare to each other.

Also for those saying please don't laugh no one will this is an exercise in gathering of data. I want everyone to report.
