If those SP1M times were at 2666mhz then Penryn is what it's claimed to be.
If at 3000 it's still a very nice increase.
Does make you want to get one and try for 8x500 though!
Thanks for the info Metro!

A good project with good goals.

At least someone made me laugh on this extremely warm day!
Super PI just isn't the type of video game that I am into, nor does it dictate how much work will be done in WCG...(nn_step cringes at the thought that the pic of super pi was done at 2666mhz,sells AMD stock, applies for job with Intel, shot at door as a suspected spy!)

Fast computers breed slow, lazy programmers
The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay.

Modern Ram, makes an old overclocker miss BH-5 and the fun it was
Just like specfp_rateSuper PI just isn't the type of video game that I am into, nor does it dictate how much work will be done in WCG...
Crunching for Comrades and the Common good of the People.
Agreed, but it is an indicator of what amount of computational power exists in that cpu..Super PI just isn't the type of video game that I am into, nor does it dictate how much work will be done in WCG...
My 8 core clovertown will only do 15.562s in SP1M but it will do almost 26,000 a day in WCG and I think thats the top single producing machine in the project....Why? 8 cores..
There are machines that produce more per core but not more total in a day..
If all the shown SS here are correct then this looks like a nice increase over the C2D's and makes me want a pair of Harpertowns all the more!

It is looking like my upgrade path is becoming clearer. Still waiting on amd numbers.
Ye, I'm sure the biggest part of the market buys CFUs only to run WCG. Hey, they gotta use the money somewhere

P5E64_Evo/QX9650, 4x X25-E SSD - gimme speed..
Nah, nn_step was teasing me if you read it closely..Ye, I'm sure the biggest part of the market buys CFUs only to run WCG. Hey, they gotta use the money somewhere
