    If you would be so kind, please download this sucker and post your benchmarks and your system specs (if it's not in your sig). Many benchmarks for Fritz already exist online, but mainly for desktop CPU's. I'm looking to get some results specifically for the Q9000, and P8700/P8800/P8400 and T9xxx, 720QM series cpu's, however if you just want to demonstrate to everyone how superior your setup is, by all means feel free to share. This is helping me in my laptop decision, as I need a gaming laptop for most current games, but I also do a lot of Chess analysis as well, and obviously that's much more CPU dependent.

    I'll start it off, with my rather weak Dell D630 here at work (don't feel obligated to post a screen cap, numbers are good for me if you don't have the time).

    The link again for the quick download is here, and I assure you this is a real chess benchmark tool, not a virus, spyware, etc.. Scout's honor. :)

    Thanks in advance, I really, really appreciate the help. :D ;)

    Here is my T7300 overclocked to 2.6ghz (266mhz FSB).
    Relative speed: 6.93
    kilo nodes per second: 3327

    I can help you overclock your FSB if you want :)

    EDIT: My temps top out at 82C with stock cooling running intelburntest.
    Temps are slightly lower running ORTHOS.

    Thanks guys! I'm going to try and keep a running tally at the bottom of my original post for the overall results.

    Thanks for the offer Moral Hazard but it's a work PC. Now when I get home I might look into that on my equally crappy laptop! :)

    Contest over!! Phil wins!! :D

    I doubt we'll get any i7 results soon, but from the desktop benchmarks they look scary fast.

    I ran it on 8 cpu server here at work and it got about ~13,000 kn/s.. I won't post that one though, not really fair :)

    So far sgilmore62 is taking up the top 2 spots with a pretty substantial lead.

    Its because a 2.7gHz quad > any dual core

    I've running an x9000 @3.0gHz and this was my score
    Fritz.png
    About where it should be against the q9200 score. I have faster cores but 1/2 the number so i'm scoring just slightly over 1/2 his score

    Found some Atom N270 results on the internet. I'll add them to the overall list if someone on the forum posts them here.

    1.6 / 767 (2 CPU w/ HT)

    1.08 / 516 (HT off, 1CPU)

    Oh, I agree! The benchmark performance directly correlates to the amount of cores.. What I'm curious to see is how close a lower-end QC like the Q6600 or Q9000 might compare to a high end C2D..

    Yeah this is one of those rare programs that "Clock Speed x Number of Cores = Score"

    3.0gHz x 2 = 6.0
    2.73 x 4 = 10.92
    about 55-56% better

    and the difference between our scores is right at 56%

    So for any of the Core 2 architecture you can pretty much extrapolate all the scores at any given speed and core number.

    So the Q9000 at stock would be
    2 x 4 = 8
    So it would give about 22-25% better score than i got

    I agree, it looks that way. I don't think we'll see the case where a dual core (even OC'd) beats the slowest QC.

    I'm interested to see how it plays out in the QC range though. For example on many benchmarks, the Q9000 beats the Q6600, even though the Q6600 has a higher clock speed.

    As it is we've already seen some discrepancy in the C2D range.. Take the following two results.

    Kallogan - 7.88 / 3783 - P9600 2.66GHZ
    moral hazard - 6.93 / 3327 - T7300 OC 2.6GHZ 266mhz FSB

    give the math (core x cs) ..

    Kallogan - 2 x 2.66 = 5.32
    MH - 2 x 2.6 = 5.2

    That's a difference of about 2.25% in the math, but an increase of ~14% when you look at kilonodes/sec. I think memory bandwidth / clock speed has a good amount of influence as well.

    Damn, that OC was impressive.. Almost up to Q9200 level. Do you normally go up to 2.79GHZ? Wonder how feasible it would be to run it that high for long periods of time.

    A lot of W90 owners have had great success at OC'ing. I never usually go up to 2.79GHz as it starts to get unstable. At 2.8GHz, Windows freezes at Desktop.

    For me, 2.76GHz is pretty much the highest stable OC I've been able to achieve, but I find that 2.6GHz is plenty powerful and very stable.

    That's really good to know. I'm holding out until January for my laptop purchase so I'm hoping to get an i7-720QM but the Q9000 seemed to be a good alternative if I can't spend enough for the i7.

    And I'd never heard of the W90 until I looked at your signature, and I officially hate you. And I want your laptop. :D

    can you close RMclock (if you're running it) and all other useless programs.

    That should speed things up for you.
    If you are undervolting with a hardware mod, then it shouldn't cause any performence decrease.


    EDIT: Update to my score, seems like it runs better today :confused:

    T7300 @2ghz: 6.01/2887
    T7300 @2.63ghz (263mhz FSB): 7.87/3775

    I don't think so. I'm "hard-undervolted" using RMclock and it doesn't change the score at all.

    Score update too (with antivirus disabled, wifi off...therefore optimal score this time) :

    Brandon his W90 isn't the ultimate laptop yet... Alienware M17x is the one with 4870 crossfire with GDDR5.. you should be really very jealous of those who are going to get it...

    I have a T5470 1.6GHz C2D with an 8400m GS. I'm jealous of many, many people at this point. :)

    It's still up there. ;)

    1. & 2. M17x and Sager NP9850 with SLI GTX280m's
    3. Asus W90Vp with Crossfire HD4870m's
    4. m17 with Crossfire HD4850m's
    5. M17x with SLI GTX260m's

    In all likelihood, the M17x with dual HD4870m's, if they do in fact have GDDR5, will indeed be the new #1, but reviews still aren't out yet.

    If only the W90 had better driver support... :(

    First official (mobile) i7 added to the list.. 820QM. A bit disappointing but I think we've established it's pretty much raw speed that leads this benchmark. Still, it's clear the 820QM will beat the Q9200 without OC'ing.

    Good god who is it that got their i5 up to 4.5 Ghz :eek:? I was surprised to see it wasnt much faster than my system stock, but no HT, so I guess it makes sense.

    Cafeine did.. I think he posted in the Sager forum, in the W860CU owner's lounge. I didn't really ask him about it, it was in his sig. Would be interesting to hear about it though.

    that requires me to pull out SetFSB...guess I can but I generally don't need it for anything I do. 2.7GHz is only a click away with Power4Gear on my G51.
