Just got a new dual box together, figured I'd throw some test results on here for you guys to check out. Here is what I have so far... The single Athlon XP is a 2100+ (1.73) running at 2.5GHz on an Epox 8RDA. The dual Athlon MP are 1700+ chips modified running 2266MHz (17x133) at 1.65v on a Tyan Tiger MP (S2460). If you'd like to run the tests just load up the engine you'd like with this position (position isn't special, randomly picked) and set your hash to 128mb. Hit infinite analysis and let it run for over 1 minute. The first result over 1 minute divide your total node count by the total time in seconds to get your Kn/s. [D]2rr2k1/p5pp/1n3p2/1Rb1p3/8/2P2NBP/P4PP1/2R3K1 w - - 0 26 Crafty 19.3 - 2x 2.26GHz MP = 2230kn/s Crafty 19.3 - Athlon 2.5GHz = 1752kn/s Deep Junior 8 - 2x 2.26GHz MP = 2924kn/s Deep Junior 8 - Athlon 2.5GHz = 1963kn/s Deep Fritz 7 - 2x 2.26GHz MP = 2264kn/s Deep Fritz 7 - Athlon 2.5GHz = 1312kn/s Shredder 7.04 - 2x 2.26GHz MP = 876kn/s Shredder 7.04 - Athlon 2.5GHz = 597kn/s If anyone is wondering, I sell these modified chips. Currently I have single Athlon XP 2.4GHz/1.75v chips in stock. Also dual Athlon MP 2400+ (2ghz) modified chips for $99 each as well 2800+ (2266MHz, 1.65v) chips for $119 and 3200+ (2.4GHz 1.75v) MP chips for $139 each. Best of all you don't have to know how to overclock or do anything of the sort. The chips are premodified, run cool & completely stable at those speeds. All you have to do is pop in the cpu and turn your PC on... nothing more. If anyone wants them or would like to see more test results email me at agordon@newageoc.com and I'll be glad to help. Also, Hyatt, I noticed as the Athlon (in SMP configuration) get faster, the speedup in Crafty gets lower. Any idea what causes this? I don't think it's a problem with the platform as Deep Junior 8 for example gets a 1.9x speedup. Crafty is pulling 2.16 million nodes/sec in the benchmark with a 1.53x speedup. If you'd be able to look into this it'd be greatly appreciated. Anyone interested, I'd like to see your results here too..
