F@H and Bulldozer

[equinox1]

since we all have been thrashing on BD for a bit with various benches i thought i would try some F@H comparing thuban and bulldozer.
i have seen a few people ask and i was curious myself but there does not seem to be much info on the web so i thought i would try.
this weekend im going to test f@h thuban1090t vs bulldozer FX-8120 with 2 different gpu combo's
last night i set the bulldozer folding with a 6970 in it to compare to my thuban. v7 client and just gpu , no smp yet

thuban 1090t @ 4.0ghz , nb @ 2500 , mem @ 1600 7,7,7,21
6970 @ 900x1425
1835 pt wu doing 2min 54sec tpf so roughly3.5 hrs per wu's

FX-8120 @ 4.0ghz , nb @ 2500 , mem @ 1970 8,8,8,24
6970 @ 900x1425
1835 pt wu doing 1min 52sec tpf so less than 2 hrs per wu's

i've only run 1 wu's on the bulldozer so far so tonight i will do multiple to verify the improvement
avg ppd went from 8880 on the thuban to 13850 on the bulldozer.

maybe ive found something good about bulldozer ?
this needs further testing so it's a folding weekend for me ( while watching football of course )

i will show as much info as i can but first im testing gpu's. no cpu clients or smp till im done with gpu's.
i use v7 fohcontrol because of my gpu's so im not trying 6.34 v
more to come
if anyone else cares to post info on BD folding by all means do so.

That is rather nice!
Could you please test distributed.net performance too?

BIG ADV project 2686, 2500NB 2300cl7 ram, 4956mhz core frequency. Given the power draw... don't think it's a folders chip.

probably not at 4.9 + but maybe at a lower oc w/turbo not so bad. your heat has to be through the roof at 4.9

I7-920 @3.8qhz doing a 2689 series wu at 34 mins 54 secs tpf.

can you test with setting it with every other core?
like affinity settings.
seems like it might score higher.

Doing a little simple math, an 8-core Thuban would produce 11,840 PPD. This may be a little inaccurate as it doesn't account for cache and ram speeds, but it is interesting. Zambezi can Fold a little at least.

And so can my atom-based netbook
