Re: [Computer-go] intel i5 760 vs amd Phenom II X6 1055T

2010-12-08 Thread Fuming Wang
I have bought a AMD phenom II x4 965 with 4 cores at 3.6 GHz. I have tested against intel i5 760 with 4 core at 2.8 GHz. I made two tests, one with pure integer operation (MC Go simulation), another with some floating point operation (some other type of MC simulation). The result is quite interesti

I have settled on i5 760, but I'm thinking of purchasing a 1090T soon, so hopefully, I will have a report soon. Fuming On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 10:46 AM, Petr Baudis wrote: > On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 10:30:49AM +0800, Fuming Wang wrote: > > I am not doing any tree updates, just pure MC simulation

I am not doing any tree updates, just pure MC simulation. 1090T has 6 core and i5 has 4 core, however i5 is better at level 3 caching (I've been told), so don't know which factor dominates. i7 920 with 6 core should definitely better than 1090T. Fuming On Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 8:45 PM, Petr Baudis

These two has simular prices. Any one know which cpu is better for Go MC simulation? ___ Computer-go mailing list Computer-go@dvandva.org http://dvandva.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
