I honestly tried to give this a go, but it was so painstakingly slow that I had to stop it. One thing I did find interesting about the run, though, was how the OS handled the single threaded Spi process. The calculations were all done on physical cpu #1 and cycled through all four cores relatively smoothly (unlike earlier). EDIT: LOL...oops...I forgot it was running in the background...just popped up a window saying "Pi calculation done." 38:11.60...yuk....






Lead the way


I'm waiting to see if it's possible to run my 8800ultra in this rig....


Need to install 32-bit windows for this. Will try to soon.....



@Johanne: Yep
Folding @ home, SMP client: http://folding.stanford.edu/download.html

During install you'll need to be logged in as administrator and need to have a password. The install.bat file will request username and password, I think it needs to be the windows user/pass. You'll need a working internet connection to run F@H. A frame should finish in less than 25 minutes.

For super pi 32 M, set affinity to one CPU and priority to high or real time under windows task manager.
Forget the main concept, I think you need an add in DSP board to run the bench, but windows media encoder you can get from here: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/...r_9_Series.htm

Then of course you need a file to encode, and then need to compare to the same file encoded on a K8 or C2D.
