Seems a bit off to me...

I went to the site - Can You RUN It?

just to check some games out and got these scores which dont seem right for my CPU. I didnt think dual core cpu's were rated like this?!?!?

That site was cool back in Oblivion's day. But now it needs a massive update to make it even look right.

I remember that I was going around with this setup in my sig and it told me I had 13.4Ghz rated CPU. That I didn't have recommended specs and I would chuckle at that(Mainly Vista).

Doesn't seem to have any effect on quad-core processors, really.

I agree 100%.. I would say they dont know how to calculate the dual core processors and they will make people's epeen grow 100X more when they see a 8 GHz + CPU.. even though it is wrong......

its not really wrong if they're talking about mult-tasking power.

and AMD rates there X2 processors the same way.
for example, 4400+ = 2.2ghz x2

Sceptor, did you delete the post asking me for my score?

well i did it anyways...



i'm not entirely sure how they get the value, since i have 6.60ghz, and (2.92 * 2) isn't 6.60

They are comparing your processor cores to a P4. Anyway, it DOES seem that quad-core processors don't have any effect on this at all. Both quads and duals get the same score at the same frequency.
