BANANA Benchmark Results Comparison

This is what my laptop does. i5-337u at 1.80GHz


(imported from here)

 

Its probably not running at 1.8GHz, it'll probably be boosting much higher. You should check CPU-Z while testing to see.

I'm adding it to the doc with a clock speed of 2.7GHz, which is your max turbo speed.

 

considering you mentioned boost, my 3217u doesnt have it: http://ark.intel.com/products/65697/Intel-Core-i3-3217U-Processor-3M-Cache-1_80-GHz

 

with 10 vehicles.

 

Yeah ive been checking them. The Mbeams/s/Core/GHz of the 3217U is almost exactly the same as it is for my 3317U.

Was it turbo boosting?

 

I doubt it, i dont even know what that is or how to do it. Dont even know what overclocking or any of that stuff is either lol

 

It probably was, it does it automatically providing its within the thermal limits. Your CPU has a max turbo speed of 3.9GHz. Download CPU-z and watch the Core Speed section, it'll probably go upto 3.8GHz when doing the benchmark.

Thats my processor and whats bugs me the most about it is that I have a motherboard that supports 800Mhz memory and I am running 400Mhz memory I think thats my bottleneck its the memory I am using...but my machine will be upgraded eventually dont worry

 

I think you probably are running 800MHz memory. CPU-Z will probably say 400MHz, which for DDR2 means 800MHz, i dont really know why but thats the way it is.

My memory is OC'd to 1066MHz, but CPU-Z states it is 533MHz.

 

Ah thanks man....the next pc I build wont have as many bottle necks in it...I intend of that...top end processor, top end GPU and f**king fast memory...and SSD and HDD combo in it...

Vengeance will be fighting I intend on making it a video editing computer but I might try and squeeze in 32GB ram into it...thats depending if I can or cannot...all depends on the budget I am given...

 

yeah it was, when id run banana it would go up to max 3.90 GHz

 

Excellent, thanks.

Please can people have CPU-Z open to verify their clocks when performing the benchmark? It is likely that if your CPU is "Stock Clocks", it's actually turbo boosting, so the frequency is probably more than your Base clock. This will help improve the accuracy of the results. Thanks

 

How do you change the test vehicle?
Edit: Nvm, I found it

My results with 10 vehicles.

 

CPU-Z provides the memory clock frequency. However DDR stands for double data rate, DDR memory signals on both the rising and falling edge of the clock signal so 1 pulse on the clock line = 2 memory transfers. The frequencies we more commonly see associated with our sticks of RAM are actually the maximum memory transfer rate (which does actually have its own unit of measurement but hertz is used for simplicity's sake). This is why CPU-Z reports half the number you are expecting.

 

i7-2630Qm @ 2.6GHz

 

when i start this programm my Toshiba notebook is freezing... so i cant try that :/

 

Apparently a good many people here do not get turbo boost. I'll try to explain it.
Back before turbo (anything older than core i on the intel side) chips had max clocks. It was common for dual cores to be faster per core and quad cores to be slower because TDP and thermals. A quad core might go 2.6Ghz while a dual core would be at 3.2Ghz. With the core i series intel introduced turbo. Turbo has multiple stages of turbo. There is "base clock" this is usually what the chip will throttle down to if it needs to, but they can usually throttle lower. This is the speed you will see on ark.intel. (Go there for info on your chip)
After that there are boost stages. As far as I know all desktop chips have followed this model, but YMMV. What turbo does is change frequency based on cores used. I'll use the 4770 for an example. Intel advertises a base of 3.6Ghz (IIRC) and a max turbo of 4.0Ghz. If one core is in use and the rest are idle the one core will boost to 4.0Ghz. Next it will move one bin (100Mhz) down for two and three cores so the 2 or 3 cores are at 3.9Ghz while the other 1 or 2 are idle. Finally the last turbo stage is all 4 cores when they are all loaded. This is usually 2 bins down so 3.8Ghz on the 4770.
Now it gets worse. Not only do mobile chips only follow this sometimes, desktop processors have exceptions too. Some motherboards (whether with a "k" chip or not) will push all the turbo boosts to the same level. That means when any cores are under load all the cores will move up to 4.0Ghz on a 4770. Then comes overclocking where you set the speed for all your cores. (Mine all run at 4.3Ghz at load.)

I hope this helps you guys out with turbos. Don't forget ark.intel.
