I am using the 2.0 ghz quad, 1gb ram. :embrass:
juz changed my sys cos the old 478 P4 3GHz died.
Pentium D 805 Dual core 2.66GHz (533 FSB)
2GB DDR II RAM
160GB OS drive
250GB scratch disc
CS 2
nothing running in the bkgrnd except firewall
overclocked the CPU to 3GHz (600FSB not even near 800FSB for higher end P4 or 1066FSB core 2 duo)
result = 57sec
very contented with the performance of this little CPU. :lovegrin: not sure what happens when i pushed it to 4GHz (800FSB). :sweat:
Maybe you will get fried chip...
followed exactly, and mine was like 33 seconds...
AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 Dual Core @ 2.86Ghz, 1GB RAM, about 3 firefox windows running, 3 windows explorer, MP3 + IM in the background...
=)
UPDATE!!!!
With CS3 Beta..my iMac 2.16 Intel Core 2 Dual did it in 38sec!!! Exactly half what it use to take (1min 15 sec)...so basically it fully utilize the 2 chip!!!
Way to go...

The Core 2 Duos usually make mincemeat of this test.
