Hey everyone. It's been a while.
I was told that LinX is having trouble coping with latest Linpacks, so I tried to fix it.

Thank you guys for all your input. It is appreciated.
I feel sorry for all those bugs and inconsistencies. In fact, I'm still surprised there's so many of you out there using this tool.
The...
Indeed guys. Have nothing against native languages at all, but it'd be great to see the English variant of the phrase somewhere as well. :)
Yes, folks, sorry for not being here and not doing anything about these GFlops issues. I am aware of them. And I too can't understand why it would work all right in some cases and show less GFlops...
I just realized I said a nonsense in my previous post about those 16 threads (I've gotta sleep more). Sorry. 8 threads should be actually fine, since there are only 8 logical processors. Not sure...
Uhm, actually not. At least it isn't for Core i7 with HT on and Linpack being run in all 8 threads. Running Linpack on a Core i7 in only 4 threads, however, would indeed result in lower GFlops (this...
I hate this «bug» but I still can't find out what's causing it. :( What's worse, it happens really rarely on my PC. I'll keep investigating, but the pattern is still unclear. Any...
1st post updated.
Links to the new 0.6.4 version:
LinX.7z
LinX.zip
LinX-setup.exe
No, no, didn't mean it in any way. :) You're always welcome here.
Thanks, stasio. :) You were faster once again.
A more english-friendly version of the changelog:
LinX 0.6.4
- added an option to run tests for a specified period of time. Use the drop-down...
He, not bad at all for a 12-thread monster. :up: I actually wanted to ask whether there is some sort of «weird» behavior in LinX when testing (the screenshot you provided has no tests completed so it...
No, of course not. One at a time is always better.
jcool
I'd like to say that it might be Linpack's incompatibility with i9, but it might be my fault as well. :shrug:
Apart from these unusually low temps does everything else seem OK?
Yep, no good indeed. Could you please a) check if the Linpack_xeon64.exe process is running when this happens and b) possibly try with some very low memory amount (like 256 MB or maybe even lwss) to...
I would agree with Sniper, well said, everything's got its good points.
Anyway, I won't be able to do anything with error finding efficiency as it is Linpack that's responsible for that.
Glass bug is fixed in the next version I hope. I'm a bit busy at the moment, so I count on your patience. There will be the ability to test for a specified number of minutes in the new version and...
Glass. :)
GigaByte, donmarkoni
Ok, I'll try to fix that.
He-he, looks like I don't have to do that part of...
He-he, looks like I don't have to do that part of the job, thanks! :D
Updated 1st post then.
One more notice: If anyone ever had a problem with LinX «not noticing» that testing is finished and...
Maybe. (I don't have Phenom II ;) ).
I think you just answered that question yourself. :) For processors with integrated memory controller like i7 Linpack might be very stressful memory-wise, I guess. This only makes it more universal...
I wouldn't say 80C is that high. I mean, it's Linpack, one would hardly get 60-65C in any other software with those settings. But it's a matter of personal preference. ;)
Thanks. You can't...
Generally, if it's just non-matching residuals then it is most likely a cpu, especially when the difference is small, say, starting in 2nd or 3rd digit. If it bluescreens or freezes then it is...

Refreshing and modern? Or stupid and useless?
P. S. Sorry for the red glass color. It just matches the wallpaper...
GigaByte,
My bad, this was just some experimenting, and I assumed that if it works under Win7, it will also work under vista. I was wrong, it seems. I'll fix it in the next release, I hope you can...
The installer
Hey, hey, nobody worry please. :)
I think I'll keep the archives and add an installer, so that everyone can use what he likes best.
And here it goes: LinX-0.6.2.1-setup.exe
This is my very 1st...
BTW, guys, anyone here interested in LinX with an installer? Or the current archived version suits everyone fine?
