Not sure what procedures are used to identify CPU, it's instruction and cache sizes: L2 should be non zero...well, 4096 Ko. Perhaps add SSE4 if it is not problem.

Honza it looks like you got your hands on a Conroe, you lucky devil you! For all of us poor saps who have to wait until Intel releases them to the public do you think you might give us a little review how they perform with E@H.

Have fun with that beast of a chip,
Dave

There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it's only a hundred billion. It's less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers. - Richard Feynman

Hi Dave (and others),

yes, a Conroe beast, high-end Extreme Edition. (got E6700 as well, but will play more with X6800 I guess).

Plan is to do some test I use (regular non-sense benchmarks like Everest and Sandra, some real jobs mine 3DSMax scene, Cinema 4D benchmark for 64-bit etc.) and put it over several BOINC projects, including my favourite one - CPDN - to see how it goes in real tasks.
But I'll have to hide my machines whereever I get attached due to information embargo - until Core2 gets released to public next month, no photos no results of measurement whether performance or power consumption. I'll put some results into my table and release is when embargo is lifted up. I do take those regulations seriously, so please don't e-mail me to convince me to act otherwise.
Sorry folks - wish I could share this wonderfull experience sooner (i.e. right away) but I can't (:-
I think that I can tell that is does real good job and performance per watt is not only an empty word with Core2. Means: bye, bye, Presshots :-)

Right now, I'm tight on schedule - undertaking final exams for Master degree on Monday early morning.
Hope for Outcome: Success with all Results Validated...to use BOINC terminology :-)

Good luck with you exams, and hopefully you can find some time to 'play' with those chips in-between studying. Don't worry about not being able to tell us much about Core2, don't want to get in trouble! When Intel does finally release them to the public maybe then you could share with us your findings.

I have done a build for you: http://docmaboul.dyndns.org/boinc.rar It should detect sse4 and report some other infos ("BoincStudio: missing tlb descriptors: ...") I can't find on the web, just before the line "Processor: 2...". Could you run it and give me back these infos?

DocMaboul, I've tested and

DocMaboul, I've tested and the report should be in your e-mail inbox. Hope it helps...hope it's not CPU serial number :-)
[host is no longer attached to Einstein and has no unique db record; I've merged it with other host. Got the run times written down].

btw, Corsica is beautiful...have been there twice (in 2003 and 2005)

Hey, Just downloaded this

Hey,

Just downloaded this program is very good.

I did have credit correction switched on just to test it and on all my Xtremlab WU's they have turned up as Zero credit (well nearly ZERO)

So have switched it off now to see what happens next

Edit: Works fine now with it switched off, I would copy and paste the credits I was getting with it off and with it on but will just paste forum link instead is much easier http://forum.ukboincteam.com/viewtopic.php?p=4504#4504

With Primegrid, Leiden, and TANPAKU it does not claim ZERO credits,
but its "credit correction" is to Claim *LESS* than IF u are *not* using it -:(

BTW: Crunching SIMAP optimized to use SSE, on a Atlhlon XP crunching with
Crunch3r boinc 5.5.0 u claim about 22 credits by WU (1 hour cpu time)

With BoincStudio, "Credit correction on" u claim about only 11 credits -:(

ps: Crunching SIMAP with a *non* optimized app on the same CPU, using
*standard* boinc 5.4.9 u claim about 22 credits too, after 2 hours cpu time !

*I believe that "credits calibration", is in need to be calibrated ;(

ps: On Linux BoincStudio "benchmarks" are less than "benchmarks" on Windows
*I Tested with a dual-boot pc (linux/windows)

Hey! Would be nice to have boincstudio to FreeBSD , MAC , Solaris, etc, too
*Only the crunching app is need.
I manage all my network trhought Internet, from *one* place, using Windows
my PC are sparse, around my country

Thanks
