4Ghz Core 2 Duo vs M.A.M.E. 0.120 (benchmark results)

Pages: (1/104) > >>

taz-nz:

I finally got my 4ghz Core 2 Duo built and it 100% stable  >:D, So since I promised a few people here benchmark scores on it here they are.

All benchmarks we preformed with official (I686 optimized) 0.120 MAME release & near complete set of MAME 0.120u1 ROMs.
The follow command line was run from command prompt window inside Windows XP Pro SP2 (32bit):

mamepp.exe -noautoframeskip -frameskip 0 -seconds_to_run 240 -nothrottle -nosleep -video ddraw -skip_gameinfo -effect none -nowaitvsync -noreadconfig -mt [ROM NAME]

Anyway here are the results.

- gauntleg         108.57%   61.88fps               :cheers:
- tenthdeg         62.03%   35.36fps

- xevi3dg           342.14%        205.28fps

model2.c
- Daytona         120.15%   72.06fps     (colours broken)

hornet.c
- gradius4         112.04%   67.91fps

Model3.c
- scud            40.98%   24.59fps     (graphics broken flickers like hell)

namcos21.c   
- starblad            140.06%   84.03fps

The namcos22.c driver looks to need a lot of work still, most of it roms show signs of emulation errors, so I would expect these scores to rise.

MAME performance basically scales 1 for 1 with clock speed, so say if you have a Core 2 Duo @ 3.2ghz your score will be approx 80% of these with the same setting.

If anyone has any other ROMs they would like me to benchmark on my system let me know, I'll do whole drivers if there is reason to. please no requests for pacman or donkey kong, for kicks I benched 1942 the result was 5570.54%,  3342.32fps (test lasted less than 10secs.) ;D

Also if anyone has a complied build of MAME 0.120u1 I686 optimized and MAME 0.120u1 64bit let me know, I would compile them myself but the last time I coded or compiled anything was back when I was writing Quake2 mods some 8 or 9 years ago so I'm a little rusty.  :dizzy:

I plan to benchmark these roms again under Vista 64bit in the near future, but I still have to install Vista and get it dual booting first.
For those that wish to know, the spec of my PC are below:

Intel Core 2 Duo e6850 @ 4ghz, 500fsb, 1.55v (3ghz, 333fsb, 1.35v stock )  8)
Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme, with 96CFM 120x38mm fan, ducted, and other mods.
Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6 (crazy cool heat plate in place)
Corsair Dominator Twin2x2048-8500C5D G (2x1GB DDR2-1066 dimms @ 2x500mhz)
XFX Geforce 8800gts 640MB (stock clock, has hit 12000+ in 3DMARK06 when overclocked)
Enermax Liberty 620watt power supply
3x Western digital 36gb Raptors in RAID-0
BLAH
Blah
blah


D4RKSL4Y3R:

hi i have almost the same computer as you:
Intel Core 2 Duo e6850 @  3ghz, 333fsb, 1.35v   
aDVANCED air cooling
Corsair Dominator 4GB
XFX Geforce 8800ultra 775mb
galaxy 800w power suppky
1x Western digital 36gb Raptor and a 76gb western digital Raptor.
motherboard( asus striker extream)

how the hell did you overclock so well? just good cooling? my air coolong is v good and my motherboards cooling is good as well (+i have a big case with lots of venaltion) so how far do you think i could overclock mine to without mods?

Red:

Thanks taz.

So, Blitz was fairly playable on your machine?


metahacker:

can you try the same tests without -mt ?

what voltages are you running on your cpu, hypertransport, northbridge, southbridge and ram ?

the fact that blitz & gauntlet legends have such nice fps is truly inspiring.

D4RKSL4Y3R:

every things on factory presets at the mo- will overclock it in bout six mounths. its just i herd that processor wasnt v good for overclocking (cutom pc magazine..)
