In regards to the importance of the speed and response time of your hard drives in this test...

This is how active my hard drives were while running the test...

And this is how my hard drive activity would be like when doing something like transfering a file.

=p yeh yeh! finally a quad mac. so the truth IS out, it really takes a quad Mac to match the timings of a dual AMD.

as for HDDs, i didnt mention about my drives, I allocated 3Gb of Ram as Ram drive for Swap file and scratch disk for PSCS2, total ram onboard is 8Gb. with the rest physical drives 15k 73Gb

The truth is that, contrary to (some) popular belief, Macs haven't been all that fast for a while already. But the new Intel based Macs should be pretty competitive.

See some CS2 benchmarks for the upcoming Yonah chip which will be laptop/desktop compatible AFAIK:

I am already saving for a new computer :cry:

i just fixed up a new rig running PS CS2

Intel Pentium D 930 3.0GHz (overclocked slightly to 3.3GHz)
MSI 945P Neo2-F Mobo
4GB Dual Channel DDR2-533 RAM (but system only reports as 3.2GB)

53s

a bit unimpressive for a dual-core :sweat: :bsmilie:

 

[igpenguin]

just under 1min 30s for my rig:
AMD Athlon64 A3000+ @1.8GHz
Asus A8N-VM CSM
2GB Patroit PC3200 DDR400 RAM
PS CS2

Don't plan to run the test on the olddddddd PIII 800...

Upgrade to windows vista once ready. Windows vista will harness the dual core technology.
