aww can't use 4cores on FX8320 as it will divide score by 8 anyway :c

aye, last time I used a K10 single core and it pretty much stormed everything.

Is there a trick for HWBot Prime using K10 CPUs? My x4 955 is scoring really low. Although looking at other scores for 955's it seems within the normal range.

 

Why does Sempron score so much higher?

Hmm. I had 4.5Ghz but for 4.22 625pc is pretty pants. It's not throttling is it.

 

I hope to enter this one with my A8 5600K. It's pretty good.

Not even close to throttling. I don't know why but Deneb just sucks at HWBOT Prime it seems.

 

Looking at scores for 965/955 my results seem to be in the normal range, which kind of sucks lol.

 

Does the sempron have newer instruction sets or something? AVX or FMA?

Seems Deneb just fails at multicore?

 

Just ran HWBOT Prime at ~4.5 Ghz with 4 cores getting ~2700pts.

 

Then went 1 core (disabled 3 cores in BIOS) and scored ~1400pts. Seems single core chip is the way to go...

Potentially. Although the Deneb silicone is better than the Sargas silicone used in the Sempron 145. It should win with the L3 cache etc.

 

HWBot prime is strange though, as a ancient E7500 @4.1 ran circles around my i7 2600K @ 5ghz
