My Quad Core 27-inch i5 has arrived! (includes pictures and Benchmark)

Hmmm interesting. I usually use XBench as that is what many members on here recommended and used. Would be great if everyone would use the same general test. Xbench does do the CPU and GFX.

XBench is awfully out of date, it's last compile was from 2006

I would opt for Cinibench R10 as well, or even GeekBench worked great
 
Oh man I'm sooooo jealous. I wish mine was here! And since I ordered it from the university I can't check my online status.... So I have NO Clue where mine is! (hoping for next week)

I would also like benchmarks... Also benchmarks that test windows 7, and parallel... :)
 
Ok Lets do some benchmarks!

Great I have benchmarks coming out my ears but trying to figure out best way to post them..shouldn't be much longer.
 
Not sure if there is a better way to post this stuff.. This is from Geekbench in 32bit mode because 64 costs money:) Let me know if theres an easier way to show ya what you want. This new mouse takes a little getting use to!!

Holy Crap! From the Geekbench site:
The iMac (Late 2009) Intel Core 2 Duo E7600 3.06 GHz (2 cores) = 4297

Yippee!!!! :)
 
Very nice indeed! My new dual core 27" gets a 4303 with Geekbench. 3.06 cpu. I am curious though, does Geekbench recognize all 4 cores and bases its test on that hence the big difference? If so, would the real world performance differences show the same if your applications were not really taking advantage of all the cores? Just curious as I'm not that familiar with Geekbench. It will be interesting to see additional benchmarks in the pipe over the next few days. Cheers and enjoy the new toy!

Nice! Thanks for the benchmarks, op! And thanks for pointing out the c2d score, too lazy to find it :)
 
Jeeso!! That is blisteringly fast. My current laptop (2.2ghz macbook scores 3102 on geekbench 32 bit).

So I literally should be running things twice as fast!

That will make up for waiting I think.
Thanks for posting the photos and scores - makes the waiting a bit easier...

Could you please run this command in the terminal:
ioreg -lw0 > quadcorei5.ioreg

and send me the resulting quadcorei5.ioreg file? This file contains all the details of your hardware configuration. I'm really curious and this information could be very helpfull to me. This command is completely harmless, it will just write the configuration into this file. If you agree (please do) I can give you my email...

It's very important to me.

OP, I don't think this is a good idea and would not do it. If this person needs any info you can give them that specific info instead of all of it. Or they can wait and get their own i5. :D
 
Why do you think it's not a good idea? this command just prints out hardware configuration with all the details. Of course I can ask a direct question - what's the cputype value in your efi, but probably not many people would be able to answer that question. That's why I want ioreg output. Normally I would go to an Apple Store and find out there using a mac on the display, but there are no core i5 macs in Apple Store yet :p

Please don't forget about me Carressa ;-)

Wolfman might I suggest you save and buy a real Mac. Then you won't have to beg those of us who spend our hard earned money to support the real mothersh:apple:p in helping you tweak your hack-a-mac.

Grats on a nice machine OP enjoy that beast. Thanks for the fun post & pics.

I sure wouldn't give it to you if I was in the OP's position.

Agreed, this Terminal command will do a dump of your compete system information, including serial number.

I would not give in, If the other user needs this info he/she should make their way down to an Apple Store to have a look for them selves.

Only my opinion, it's better to be safe than sorry eh

Agreed. This is not the forum or place to ask such things anyway. The OP has such a good thread going, let's not spoil it. I'd like to thank the OP for her hard work and time.
 
Well I just wanted to say all the things I was worried about are not happening..

The machine is very very quiet no grinding HD as some have mentioned.

It has been running for over 6hrs now with no slow down or changes in screen res.

No dead pixels no problems!

Going to run a few games on it WoW, Spore, and Aion in bootcamp to see how it handles the games....I tell ya the one huge difference I notice between it and my 24 is the screen! the brightness is amazing....Let me know if there is anything else I can supply ya with while you wait the hellish wait :(
