I also had a long email thread about that with Ian from Anandtech, regarding what the benchmark exactly measures and things like that.

By "email thread" I presume you mean lots of back-and-forth emailing between you two? I'll admit that I've never heard that being called a "thread" before. Presumably whatever it was you told Ian he deemed to be of some sort of worth for him to incorporate the benchmark into his test suite. ------------------------------------------------------------- (03-22-2014, 07:59 AM)NaturalViolence Wrote: Whoever did this is my hero now.

For one thing I wanted to make sure you weren't just referring to some of the things you had stated earlier in this here topic. I won't ask what it was you two discussed in the interest of privacy.

I really think CPU-NB/HT or cache speeds should be taken into account in the spreadsheet. I know that it's not too much in the control of Intel users, but it's definitely in the control of AMD users, and makes enough of a difference to acknowledge.

Too bad the chart isn't updated anymore. :/

What at shame, would've been nice to flaunt about when someone with an ultra-low-power sandy tells me their processor is better than mine because it's intel.

The benchmark was originally for finding out which processors would be capable of emulating the Wii's CPU at or above full speed. It's easily accomplished what it set out to do, and then some! There were a few interesting discoveries, namely, how Haswell's IPC performs so well in this situation, but beyond that there really isn't too much more to say. Specific performance for any CPU can easily be extrapolated by comparing it against processors that are already in the chart. Further updating would simply be a waste of time. |
