Post your wPrime 32M times

Hey guys sorry I haven't been on in a while, I am in the process of moving so we are packing everything and have everything moved so that we can paint the house. :) So Question umm...... What does the 32M test determin?

So the time is how long it takes to process, On my processor, 4 Threads at 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% power?

And then I am guessing the WPrime takes those 4 scores and datermins the average or "median" score?
 
Not exactly, it uses whatever thread count you put it. If your CPU is 4 threaded, and you put it for it to use 4 threads, it will use 100% of the cpu. If you just do 1 thread, it will do 25% cpu usage.
 
Did a little wprime at 3.8ghz, tried to boot at 4ghz... instant bsod :( got down to 10.149 with 3.8ghz though
 
Did you run in diagnostic mode? Cuts 1-2 tenths off your time in windows 7 x64, you could get under 10 seconds if you didn't.
 
On that note, I forgot to post my updated score-

Just couldn't get under 4 seconds for the life of me.

I'm curious as well. I stripped my OS to the best of my ability, but I know there are better ways of doing it. (I just used IOBit gamebooster, and disabled a bunch of other stuff manually)
 
Hey, what are your temps like with the 212+? I want to compare to my TX3 (also tell me if you have cool n quiet enabled!)
 
Useful to compare when you have the same CPU :rolleyes:

Linkin, what does wPrime mean when it says your chip has the "agena" core? I thought it was propus?
 
For diagnostic mode-

Go to the ''run'' box (hit the button that opens the start menu and ''R'' at the same time) and type in MSCONFIG and just select to run in diagnostic mode. The internet won't work as it shuts down the LAN, but just run Wprime and get your screenshot and then run msconfig again and hit normal startup and reboot.

It is useful. To compare the CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 and the Hyper 212+ ;)

I think Agena is an older core that has locked L3 cache, I know my Propus doesn't have any

Honestly I don't monitor it much while benching, but IIRC the highest I have seen it go is 41C under load, with no CnQ. That was somewhere above the 3.6GHz mark. Ambient was pretty low, though.

I don't overclock it if I'm not benching, and I leave CnQ on, so temps stay between 18C and 24C(idle) depending on ambient, and I think the highest I've seen is 38C under load.
 
Ah okay. It's been cold here lately, about 14c ambient. I have seen my GTX 460 and CPU idle at sub 20 degrees right after booting. :eek: and load temps stayed under 45c
