your duo does pretty well but theres nothing to compare it to.
i tried changing from unganged to ganged and i saw no difference in the benchmark result. also has anyone seen that every time you start up your computer the first time to run the test it gets a score much lower than all the others?
i dont know but look at "El Greco"s result on 2. page. it has decimal also. i think it is because of OS. i use vista. and look like "El Greco" use vista too.
I think the comma/period thing is due to the OS's localization setting. If you're set to somewhere that separates thousands with periods instead, it'll be switched.
i ran the bench again with tighter timings of 5-5-5-15-21 instead of 5-5-5-24-30 at 1066. i didn't see a change so idk how the bench works.
now i tried running the bench on 800mhz ram instead of 1066. no change at all. then i tried all my other benchmarks. i saw no change at all either. in super pi i even saw a 2 second decrease so im kinda confused. might have something to do with the fact that my cpu came out before 1066 was even jedec certified on it. particle do you know what to do to get a better score?
give him money or sex, either one will boost your score
Scores should generally increase with both CPU clock increase, RAM clock decrease, and/or RAM timings decrease. It's strange that your RAM difference didn't impact your score.
changing from unganged to ganged didn't change my score, changing from 5-5-5-24-30 to 5-5-5-15-21 didn't change my score and changing from 1066 to 800 didn't change my score. i am afterall just running a phenom 9600 at stock clocks tho. and i have questioned it from the start if my cpu can even work with 1066. im gonna try running the ram at 533 now.
i just tried it again at 667 with no change in score. i am starting to believe that my cpu could be the bottleneck of this program.
edit: super pi did best on ddr2-800 followed by ddr2-667 and then ddr2-1066. after running the AOD benchmark i noticed that with each speed decrease in ram the memory speed score would go down but the overall score was higher. doesn't make any sense to me but w/e.
Vista x64, Q6600 @ 3.6GHz, DDR2-800 4-4-4-12, etc
Vista x64, G.Skill PQ at Trd=9

Looks like the extra RAM clock made a difference from Metric's 800MHz. I'll try to lower the Trd and see what happens.
EDIT: Lol, my results have neither period nor coma?
Tested at schools comp:
A64 3500+ and XP
It doesn't want to start on my Octacore.. just says "Application failed to start" :(
On XP x64... Help?
Do you have the .NET 2.0 framework or better installed?
Ah, no, I haven't.
Will try to install it ;)
Here we go.. try and beat that ;)
Dual X5450, running 445x9, 8GB DDR2-800 FBDimm at 890Mhz 5-5-5-15 in QuadChannel configuration :up:
Warm up... no tweaking, system at stock clocks... and really loose RAM timings & subtimings ( low frequency as well as you can see ).
Normal windows XP Pro SP3 x86 installation, with background programs running ( winamp, flashget downloading, msn )

Not breaking a sweat... still loose subtimings and chipset related stuff.
Might give this a shot later on at 5.5GHz with the RAM at 1800+ 6-5-5-16 1T on a better mobo :D

Impressive score for a Quad. You can go beyond 6Ghz and you still won't beat mine tho *g*
Need a ST + QX CPUs for that. :)
