INFERNO2000 0 Posted August 29, 2000 Looking for any recomendations on a CPU intensive ap for WIn98 to run for personal benchmarking until my heatsink comes in and I install 2k Any recomendations? Share this post Link to post
Down8 0 Posted August 29, 2000 http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu SETI@home will use 99%-100% of your processor, and only 16megs of RAM [if you tell it to run all the time]. I used the graphical version to compare my old AMD, and my new PIII: PIIIe 500MHz: ~17 hrs/packet AMD K6-2 450MHz: ~50 hrs/packet AST 486 66MHz: ~350 hrs/packet -bZj Share this post Link to post
INFERNO2000 0 Posted August 29, 2000 Well...I ran Quake 3 at all the high settings for 9 hours, with Seti@home in the background, as well as some other media apps repeating over and over...and my CPU went from a standard 87 degrees(which is incidentallythe same as my motherboard), to a staggeringly high 87 degrees!!! Something tells me I'm going to enjoy this rig. Share this post Link to post
