CPU Performance: SPEC 1T

A popular industry standard comparison tool between processors are the range of SPEC benchmarks. We use SPEC2006 and SPEC2017 in our major microarchitecture analysis pieces as a way to determine where certain processors might be bottlenecked given a particular microprocessor design decision. For the purposes of this review, we are looking at the aggregate results between some of the other processors we have tested, given that this benchmark has only recently rolled into our regular suite.

    Should I repost the countless comments made by Intel fanboys claiming that the fans on x570 meant the sky is falling? Don't try to ambush people with the accusation of a double standard when your side drew first blood

    The double standard was exactly my point. End of the world for X570 for own 50-60mm fan back then, Crickets chirping for several 40mm fans on Z490 now.

    its one small fan and its inaudible I haven't heard mine ever. The only people complaining about this is people who still thinking they are dealing with motherboards from the 1990's.

    They're worrying about longevity of the fans.
  • yeeeeman - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link

    All x570 motherboards had fans that was the problem. Here some specific models do

    The above.

    I've tweaked the fan curve on my motherboards, it's never kicked in yet.

    Why are there data points from AMD missing in a number of tests. For example, the Crysis CPU render is missing data points for all of AMD’s processors except the 3600.

    Crysis CPU render "This is one of our new benchmarks, so we are slowly building up the database as we start regression testing older processors."

    They are in the middle of updating the entire suite. That means that not every CPU has been tested with in the new suite so the only data available is from CPUs that have been tested.

    bad anandtech policy, thus confuse users. If they pay attention to the amount of unsubstantiated comments, they are targeted for those graphics, confusing users with "superiority of intel" ... and this is not the case

    haha - yeah exactly. Anything where AMD would be ahead...."oh our database is light"
