Indeed this is the case. Not only that, but Dolphin only really takes good advantage of 3 cores (CPU, GPU, DSP), but the benchmark has no audio and is very slim on the graphics, so a dual core could easily see the same performance as even an 8-core of the same CPU architecture.

I wanted to see how how a Skylake I3 compared to all those fancy quad cores and overclocked Pentiums. Tongue

Skylake appears to be faster than Haswell, clock for clock, but not by much

Did you ever find out why Core2s were performing better than my Sandy Bridge i7 2600ks at the same clockspeed?

I was unable to spend any time on the issue due to real-life logistic issues. However, the good news is that those issues have now mostly passed and will have definitely passed in a week's time.

For the Xeon lovers, I posted some values for my E5450. xD

Tks OP for the great benchmark!

I just want to say that I still have no conclusion with regards to Core 2 Duo being faster than both Sandy Bridge and Westmere in this benchmark. I welcome any and all help with regards to investigating this behavior.

(part of the issue is that I only have access to Core 2 Duo systems with integrated graphics)

hello all! new here! Just used dolphin to bench my CPU overclock. Might as well add some data points

edit: how do i get the images to show on post?

edit 2 : i droped my clock speed by 100 to 4300mhz, and increased ram speed by 100. Benchmark droped by 8 seconds to 5minutes flat.

0h 4m 52s? Nice one! Can you do it again on @2000mhz?

the ram? yes i did it again with ram @ 2000mhz

same score... apparently ram speed does not effect dolphin score at all... i tried it from 1700 to 2200 mhz memory speed...no difference.

unless you were asking for cpu speed @ 2000mhz....

i just ran it at 4.5ghz though, scored 4m 47s.. not much of a gain

Oh no, sorry, can you do it at @2000Mhz on cpu (2Ghz), for the sake of comparison?
