I would say it's 10 times more powerful, for not use "faster" than a Coppermine 1000? It was released on May 2000. Hard to tell, as each app/game will show different benefits from new features.

Well, Conroe is basically a re-engineered P3 with new manu processes. An overclocked P3 will beat an early P4.

The valocidades reached by coolaler is impressive.
Will we end up seeing the 6Ghz? :D
To as much as these processors can arrive with the phase changes?

"Conroe is basically a re-engineered P3"
which in just a slightly upgraded Pentium Pro,
which in turn is just a bit faster Pentium,
which is only an enhanced 486,

so when you really come down to it, Conroe is no better than a 386! (?)

Puhhleez... give the BS a break. There aren't enough fingers on my hands to count all the microarchitecture changes of Conroe, and improvements over P4 Netburst. Dont for a second try to dismiss the huge effort Intel engineers put into this (It all started with PentiumM - March 2003).


dual-core, 4 issue, 14 stage, micro/macro fusion, 1cycle SSE, >5Ghz, SuperPi<10s... does that look (even remotely) like a P3?

EDIT: "An overclocked P3 will beat an early P4" and an overclocked AthlonXP will beat the slowest Conroe.. whats the point of this uneven comparison?

EDIT2: Coolaler.. how are temperatures at yor lofty clocks? Any hot spots on the motherboard? You can do SuperPi 1M@~5.2Ghz, so whats holding you back from doing suicide screenshts at higher clocks??

Just out of curiosity how much did this rig cost??

Oooh that is a good question...I would be interested to find the answer.....

great job coolaler

;) ;)

Where would the Conroe be if it hadn't had two cores and had only 512kb cache at the same clockspeed of the pentium3.

Pentium3 is the best enginereed-chip so far. Conore has a lot of improvement, but it gets a lot of it's power from the dualcore, cache and clockspeed, not only from it's architecture ;)

Nobody is surprised that this time is pretty much the same as when you had the multipler at 6 instead of 13 with the same fsb :confused:


Is this something to do with it fitting in the cache or did i read it wrong.

Amazing I didnt think of it like that but I guess the point would be the best of old technology is not so easily beaten
