Intel Bloomfield clock for clock 45% faster in 3DMark Vantage CPU Test Another interesting hunt over at Computex is definitely the Intel Nehalem and we managed to get our hands on a 2.66GHz Bloomfield running on a X58 Tylersburg board. Its 3DMark Vantage CPU score is pretty remarkable at 16334 which is about 45% faster than a similarly clocked Yorkfield. http://www.vr-zone.com/articles/Inte...rked/5825.html |
mostly due to the hyperthreading though;) |
But it is still 45% better performance. So if I run 8 versions of F@H I would see measurably higher performance than only 4 versions of F@H... |
what I meant is that the performance increase will be directly related to the application you are using. F@H is an example. Single threaded applications however won't see any improvement from HT |
True enough. But if still using single-threaded programs, then they have no reason to be using a Quadcore Nehalem anyway, no? |
not much choice since CPU race is over and all our going multicore on us :/ |
No reason to not buy a dual-core, most programs are at least dual-threaded. Or there is always single-core 1.8GHz Conroe-L for $40 |
