QOTW: What do you score in Cinebench?

[Hoonigan]

Intel i7 7700K @ 5.0GHz

1170.

[atomicWAR]

i7 3930K @4.2ghz DDR3 2400 CL 10 T1

1102

[Hoonigan]

i7 3930K @4.2ghz DDR3 2400 CL 10 T1

1102

So you have 2 more cores and 4 more threads than my 7700K but only score slightly higher @ 4.2GHz. Interesting.

Yeah between the Windows April Update and a ram change ( quad channel 16 GB DDR3 2400 CL9 T1 to quad channel 32 GB DDR3 2400 CL10 T1) my numbers fell. On the low side I can get 1092 up to 1102 on the high side whereas prior to the april update I got low 1101 to 1112 and before I replaced my ram it would hit as high as 1114. All in all the scores are not bad for a system of this age running in a tropical environment like Hawaii but I do water cool with a 120mmx3 by 80mm thick RAD to cool things off. The temps in my house on a bad day can hit 90+ degrees with AC on but only in the corner where the PC sits do the ambient temps spike high. This is why such a beefy cooling system is required. Under full load it hits 70C with the 4.2ghz clock. I may turn my pump speeds up and check my max OC of 4.6GHZ and see if that helps things. TBC

So I Increased my OC and gave things a whirl.

i7 3930K @ 4.6ghz DDR3 2400 CL10 T1
1201

Hadn't checked my max OC since April update dropped. I do get a nice little 99 point bump. My temps under full load for 4.6GHZ during summer typically get a toasty 85C though the OC is stable...for now. During August running 4.6GHz is impossible due to ambient temps. Winter time my i7 3930K@4.6GHZ runs closer to 80C but i typically run it at 4.2GHZ as this is enough for my gaming/streaming/video editing needs in concert with 2 GTX 1080s in SLI@4K 60FPS max settings or close in most games. Honestly until PCIe 4.0 drops I don't have a lot of need to upgrade though my wife's old i7 970@4ghz is getting a little long in the tooth for her gaming needs but it still achieves max settings @60FPS in most games with 2 GTX 980s @1080P so she can live until PCIe 4.0 drops as well. Likely I will build 2 new machines in short order in 2019/20 depending on 4.0's implementation.

As it stands Zen is barely better in gaming then my current setup. Hopefully Zen 3000 series will fix that (or what ever is PCIe 4.0 compliant)...I hate my last three primary rigs were Intel (Q9650@3.9ghz, i7 920@4ghz, i7 3930K@4.2GHZ) but AMD really dropped the ball with Faildozer. I ran a Phenom 965 as a secondary gaming rig but the AMD FX 60 was the last time AMD ran on my main PC. I missed AMD glory days...glad they made it back to the party.

Preferred the motorbike....

[Iota]

I dunno about that man... I set the bar pretty low

/thread. Well played.

i7 2600k @ stock 583
i7 2600k @ 4.1Ghz 702

Could probably go higher, but don't want to push my overclock to more than 4.1 with HT active.

[ik9000]

0.2, it takes me hours to colour all those bits in by hand.

0.4, I colour in using both hands.

oh I see what you did there. Nice! :clap:

Anyway, proper values:
i7-870
Score on stock @ 2.93GHz = 507
Score OC @ 3.96 GHz = 626
Score OC single thread = 122

578 :C
fx 8320 showing it's age

[MarkOtley]

CPU 4228 with a Intel 7980XE overclocked

[h4d3z]

1300 with a 2600X @ stock

[peterb]

Wouldn't run on OSX but my Macbook is plenty fast enough for video editing/transcoding etc so performance measurements aren't that important to me.

[Marenghi]

1484 for my 1700 @ 3.85

[Phage]

1736

1700x @ 3.9 and RAM at 3200

[yeeeeman]

6700HQ, google the score...

833 on i7 4790k @ stock (4.0Ghz)
