Mike. Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hi, i bought a new machine, and i would like to evaluate its speed concerning rendering and display in 3ds max. googling gave me no benchmark scene exept evermotion one, wich is very very old... Could anyone point me a good benchmark application or scene to test and optimize my new machine ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macer Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I wouldn't say that its particularly good, but its somewhere to start: http://www.3dspeedmachine.com/?page=3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbowers Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I would recommend Cinebench 10, by Maxxon. It runs through a series of tests and will produce benchmarks that you can then compare to other machines. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike. Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 (edited) Thanks both Cinebench seems to be a good test. looking at some benchmarks on the net, i found my results are quite good. i'm happy.

danb4026 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I just installed an i7 920 on my machine and just downloaded Cinebench aswell and ran the test. Here's my results for comparison.

Mike. Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 damn your i7 is fast ! as fast as my bi xeon for multiple cpu rendering. and much faster for single cpu. i have the same graphic card as you have, but i didn't go in depth to activate its power yet. and the vista display things might slow the test. I'll try to optimize again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danb4026 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Mike, I slightly OC'd the i7 by just raising the BLCK Frequency to 190MHz from 133. It made the cpu run at 3.99GHz rather than the standard 2.67. Seems stable too. Not bad for a processor for under $300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 "Slightly" isn't the word for that. You have good cooling, I hope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOXXLABS Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 You should download and run hwmonitor - it's a tiny application that gives you some information about how your hardware is running. Run a CPU stress test such as CPUburn or Prime95 or just do a really long renderin mental ray or some other raytracer. Nail the cores at 100% utilization for a few minutes. and run HWmonitor at the same time. If your CPU temp is showing to be above 90 degrees Celsius (about 195 degrees F), you are certainly decreasing the lifespan of your CPU.

Raffaello.S. Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Hello, could you tell me the settings please?

Frosty Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Dan did you happen to CB on it prior to the OC? I'd like to know what a base i7 will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Try this. SMT is another name for Hyperthreading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
