Well, I have already tested my equipment and I have updated the signature, now I will see if they are more or less normal results.

Edit: I have tested mode 0 and my processor comes out in the top 50 with error:

15. error op t3= 0. Please, report

It is the one with the score 24024 in mono and 78797 in multi.

[cobito]

@yorus Ok, that error appears when processor identification data is missing and I have to enter it manually (it will always appear when a model is submitted for the first time).

It already works fine.

[Yorus]

Perfect, I will go ahead and test some more, I don't spend money on very normal micros, hehe.

We have just launched the new internal engine that accelerates the loading time of the heaviest pages by an order of magnitude. For the moment it has only been applied to the front page processor rankings in order to see how it behaves. Over time it will be extended to the rest of the site.

And as now it seems that the front page rankings are going at a reasonable speed, two general tops are also shown for the maximum modes of each model (you will see a much more interesting ranking with more models).

[QVENGADOR]

Wonderful.

[cobito]

Now the front-page CPU rankings have a different aesthetic that remains the same regardless of the browser (as long as it is recent).

The new back-end has also been applied to the fiches that now load much faster.

Taking advantage of the speed improvement, a new section has been implemented where the 10 most similar CPUs in every way are shown: those that are most similar in both single and multi-core performance in both mode 0 and the highest mode available. The similarity is ordered in descending order. It is possible that some models in lower positions do not look too similar simply because the available repertoire is still limited.

Example

[Xevipiu]

It still recognizes 80mhz more, but well, now the application is starting to have a better color

[cobito]

@xevipiu Thanks. The thing is that each architecture is a bit different when it comes to measuring frequency, but a correction per model is planned (for which I need that model to have gone through the test bench beforehand). Anyway, an error of 80MHz in 3Ghz? still complies with the <3% rule. But yes, it is something that needs to be improved.

Guys, I'm pushing version 1.2. I need someone with a Sandy Bridge (2000 series any i3, 5 or 7) to do me a favor by running the benchmark in mode 6.

Thanks in advance.

[Sylver]

@cobito I just went through it and it crashes my hlbm-core, in the end it says that something went wrong and that I should try a lower mode.

[cobito]

Thanks @sylver, that was what I needed to know.

Oops, I just disassembled mine, today I received an i3 8350k (courtesy of the company), finally I retire my 2500k! I will surely do a small comparison of the i5 2500k vs i3 8350k to see if a 130€ CPU today is worth considering to upgrade a good CPU from 6 generations ago xD I have passed a few benchmarks at 4.2Ghz (affordable oc in any 2500k) and I will compare with the i3 of series (4Ghz) and with OC.
It will be accompanied by an Asus Z370 Pro Gaming, 16GB of Hyper X 3200C17 (in our provider impossible to find Samsung B-Die), an RL Corsair H115i and finally a tower (Thermaltake View 31) to retire my wooden box as well.

[Xevipiu]

Well, I just posted my 8700k at only 5.4Ghz with 1.3v

[krampak]

@cobito I'm starting to test with the i3, if you look at the Top100 it shows as Engine error 0 and links to a CPU that is not.

[cobito]

@krampak is a backend debug message that I forgot to remove. It should say "this is the first time this model is being sent, it will appear in about an hour". I will fix it this afternoon.

EDITED: It has already been added but the internal engine seems to have problems identifying it. I doubt I can fix it for today although it is noted as a priority.

[Magog]

I have put in an 8700k. Still untouched, all by default.

Best regards.

[cobito]

@magog Perfect. Having data from micros to stock frequency (in addition to overclocked) is important in order to be able to extract future overclocking statistics.

By the way, if everything goes well, version 1.2 of the test bench will appear this weekend.

[Magog]

Soon I will upload more with OC done. By the way, how has this changed!! I'm used to the BIOS of the 1366, this one has too many frills.
And on the other hand, now that the change has been made, I can only reaffirm that the socket 1366 with the Xeon was and is an excellent platform.

Best regards.

[cobito]

Version 1.2 is now available. For all the details, you can visit the first post of this thread. The most notable is the deep aesthetic change, but there are also some important changes under the hood: after analyzing many results, it was concluded that modes 1, 2, and 3 corresponding to MMX, SSE, and SSE2 make no sense today, so they have been removed. In this way, SSE3, AVX, and AVX2 modes are now modes 1, 2, and 3 respectively (the results of the old modes 1, 2, and 3 are still available for consultation, but they are no longer used to form the statistics).

Now the Windows version is also sent, although for the moment this information is not reflected in the Central. I am going to give it a good debugging soon, so I will take the opportunity to make the Windows version come out.

To finish, tests 3 (memory) and 4 (generic ops) have been swapped. This change also affects all past results. The tests are now:
· Test#1: Integers
· Test#2: Floating point
· Test#3: generic operations (zip de/compression)
· Test#4: memory operation performance

As usual, bug reports and suggestions are welcome.

I'm testing. Bit Defender keeps insisting that there is malware
