P4 3.6 GHz low sandra score?

paymon · Apr 14, 2003

This is my P4 2.4B @ 3.6 GHz. Doesnt the sandra score seem about 1000 points lower than normal on the INT unit?

This cant be due to thermal throttling.. im running a swiftech mcx4000 w/ 84cfm tornado fan. The max load temp reaches 55C

ahh... you're not looking close enough. The CPU you're comparing your CPU to has Hyper threading, yours doesn't. You're CPU is right where it should be for a non-HT CPU.

SMT 2 means hyperthreading or dual CPU's

hmm.. even a non-HT 3.6 ghz p4 should get atleast 10k

wuts the details on that chip, and where did you pick it up?

paymon · Apr 14, 2003

costa rica week 52 SL6RZ

it may be due to temps, 55 is kind hott.

paymon · Apr 14, 2003

I seriously doubt that...

pwned2k · Apr 14, 2003

did you handpick it? or did you order online, if so where from.

wuts the vcore and cooling, sorry for all the questions.

o yeah, i usually dont know what im talking about.

The bench seems to be OK + - .....

its weird i dont get sandra or these chips sometimes. my week 52 costa rica scored 9900mips at 3420 MHz but sometimes it scores low 9k My chip should not be throttling cuzz temps are below 55c normally like 50c so i dont get it either.

At what temp does throttling kick in? I thought it was ~70, so I don't think this is a throttling problem.

i am having 67*C on CPU right now....it's still running Prime95 right now....it has being this way for about 12 hours so far...

Skeetman · Apr 14, 2003

Whoa! 67 C is pretty warm. What kind of cooling do you have?

oops · Apr 14, 2003

stock lol...i am getting a water cooling...

It varies from chip to chip. Generally, throttling starts somewhere between 63C and 68C, but won't be very noticeable before 70C. Raising the Vcore on a chip will also skew the throttle point (usully moving it higher).

That looks right to me, my 3.42GHz P4 scores

Dhrystone ALU: 9547MIPS
Whetstone FPU/SSE2: 1895/4236

As said before the other chip is a HT 2.8GHz P4 so it will score better since HT adds extra power, theoretically its like having dual procs, to make it score better than your chip. If you look at the nonHT 3.06GHz numbers its:

Dhrystone ALU: 8164MIPS
Whetstone FPU/SSE2: 1717/4009 MFLOPS

Here is mine @ 2c

thats what I get @ 3.4ghz

.

looks like jdmcnudgent was right. see what it does at that temp.
