Badrig Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 theres nothing to say about i think everybody knows this benchmark and its easy to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurek Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 question is if we need more benchmarks... answer is rather not... we have 3dmarks for graphics we have aqua for overall we have pifast wprime super pi for cpus what would give us cine? maybe good for 4 cores... in future we should move to benchmarks that will be in this 3 categories mentioned above graphics, overall, cpu and in every category there should be less benchmarks possible (only those which best fit in every category and are best validable and so on) thats my humble opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badrig Posted May 17, 2008 Author Share Posted May 17, 2008 am3 is quite old i think its no objective allround benchmark ... and it's not multithreaded cinebench is the best cpu bench in my opinion prime and pi calculators tests only fpu but not the whole processor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurek Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 cine tells that 4 cores are better than 2 coz its optimized for 4 cores and can use them but the truth behind is that most applications, games and so on aren't optimized and pifast and others would tell u what u really get for money spent on cpu and what is real life difference between 4 cores and 2 cores for example and the sad truth is that for common user 2 cores are best choice and pifast and others show that and if only looking at cine one could make decision bout buing 4 cores which would be wast for him by not using them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badrig Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 and because of this fact we need it as new benchmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurek Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 yeah if we sorted benchmarks in categories it definetly would be handful but... it hasnt verification feature has it? if not we shouldnt hesitate to add it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dualist Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 cine tells that 4 cores are better than 2 coz its optimized for 4 cores Works even better with 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurek Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Works even better with 8 really? i dunno this benchmark but i doubt it is optimised for 8 cores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dualist Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Like Wprime it's pure SMP, uses what cores are available and uses it. Just like NuclearMC, another great SMP benchmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badrig Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 but it dont tests memory so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dualist Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 wprime cheats No it doesn't, it uses what's available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurek Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 No it doesn't, it uses what's available. could do the same thing u said using million threads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knopflerbruce Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 could do the same thing u said using million threads ...and why not make it 10^24 threads while we're at it? More (useless) threads = better? I don't think so. Using as few threads as possible, combined with as much performance as possible is what's the best. It's not like wprime tweaks your subtimings and has a built-in copywaza, or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
