demiurg Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hi! I have a question. Why CPU-Z rating focus on NetBurst only? AMD 4200MHz - only 2.5 hwboints, C2D 5600MHz - only 12.1 hwboints, is it fair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demiurg Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 CPU speed Speed? Are you sure? I think, it is just a long conveyor in NetBurst`s architecture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demiurg Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 C2D with 4000MHz is faster then CedarMill/Presler with 8000MHz And get 4000MHz on AMD CPU is much harder as get 8000MHz on CedarMill/Presler IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richba5tard Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 You're completely right, but the CPU-Z ranking has nothing to do with performance, just clockspeed. I had doubts too when adding CPU-Z, but it was added by popular request. By the way, you have to give the netburst cpu's some credit, this is the only category they score well in.

12 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 May be it would be better to divide processors by architectures and according this dividing give hwboint's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richba5tard Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I'd be a whole lot of work to treat cpu-z as a special case: - different hwboint algorithm - different ranking pages - a lot more maintenace = slower development - ... Personally I don't think it's worth all the trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Demiurg- You saw DeDal's thread yesterday in topmods.net? You know how long he has tryed to achieve that magig 8GHz barrier It's not so easy to get your cpu speed that high. My celeron didn't go over 6.4GHz no matter what, but I'm not complaining. CPU-Z ranking is all about MHz. Nothing else and that's the way it should be in future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadhiq Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I think everything's fair... CPU-Z is pure speed, for performances, you still have all the benches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do know. And I'm not complaining too I just think 4500MHz on AMD, 6000MHz on Conroe and 8000MHz on NetBurst must get equal hwboints.

Massman Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Not really ... cpu-z = just cpu speed. We can't help it if AMD doesn't create such high-ocable cpu's. Netburst may be not superfast, they are oc-able and that's what counts in this ranking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaan Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 But what if hwbot calculate hwboints not from speed, but percent of oc- maybe that would be more honest for hardcore oc-ers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
