what's up everyone jon rettinger and TechnoBuffalo here I've had the core i7 imac throw over a week in half and during that time pad a lot of questions asking how it performs not the best way to sort of show its performance was to run a full battery of benchmarking test so i downloaded and purchase geekbench we're going to run this thing through it and see how it comes out let's get started alright so before we run the benchmark let's review the specs of the computer so it is running Mac OS 10 version 10.6 point for which is currently the most updated version it's got an intel core i7 processor o'clock 22.9 three gigahertz it's got a gigabytes of ddr3 RAM the startup disk or all the applications and the OS stored is on a 256 gigabyte solid state drive computers also equipped with the two terabyte 7200 RPM spinning drive let's go ahead and check out the graphics odd is required with an ati radeon 5750 video card so as i mentioned i purchased deep bench we're going to go ahead and run these tests in 64-bit and 32-bit configurations a 64-bit probably the most accurate all the applications and the OS itself is 64-bit however some things are still 32 I thought people might want to see what that was going to look like so we are going to run both of these tests 64-bit I think should probably be the most accurate but let's go ahead and get started let's start with the 32-bit we're going to go ahead and run the test right here I'll explain what all of these things mean as well we're going to go ahead and run the benchmark and as it gives us a result sort of all go through and talk about what each thing means but it's not the sort of show the overall score was in 32 and I'll sort of analyze the 64-bit scores you can see right here you bench is running it runs pretty quickly all we have open right now is a screen recording program i'm using called screen IAM i won Firefox window open and my external monitor is connected everything else is closed this shouldn't be a too taxing application for the program to run alright so here is the full geekbench score of 8543 the 64-bit operating system 32 it's not really optimized for so this isn't the most accurate test but a keeps people were wondering what the 32-bit text was here is the result for that let's go ahead and now jump to the 64-bit test and we'll go ahead and analyze that as well let's go ahead and open this up we'll do the same thing to take the same amount of time to run so go ahead and run benchmark so it's going to give us an overall performance it's going to talk about integer performance floating point performance memory performance room performance and a few others while talk about sort of way each of those are so it's going to measure first integer performance and that benchmarks measure integer performance by measuring a variety of processor intensive tasks I make heavy use of integer operations so I'll just pretty much running a bunch of processes in the background and here is the score coming in at nine thousand 76 which is actually a bit lower than I've seen on other tests that I run this on I just had a bit over 10,000 when I ran this test a few minutes ago so it's going to be the rain varies so here is the overall score here's the integer performance we talked about here's a floating point performance memory and stream go ahead and zoom in a little bit you guys can see what I'm talking about we've got a 7730 74 process or integer if you just talked about floating point we have a score of 13,000 925 in floating point benchmarks measure floating-point performance by performing a variety of processor intensive tasks and heavy use of floating-point operations so there's that Marion performance 5144 memory benchmarks measure not only the performance of the underlying memory hardware but also a performance of function provided by the operations system used to manipulate in memory and you've got a stream performance is that final one that came in at 4663 extreme benchmarks measure both floating point performance and sustained and memory bandwidth so that is what the 64-bit test comes in at let's run it one more time and see if we get a higher lower score to show if there is any sort of fluctuation in the square pratts would be lower and will be higher and also talk about some their computers and how this compares with some geekbench scores let me go ahead and quit this and we'll try it one more time run the 64-bit test and see if we get sort of any different score so go ahead and run the benchmark and we'll see if there's any different think it's important to run a test at least twice to see what I guess the standard deviation or margin of error may be so we had a score of little over 9000 last time we'll see if it comes in any higher this time we're about halfway done with the geekbench score and if you do want to buy the software to run this it's about twenty dollars so we gotta just about same score looks to be pretty accurate 9620 eight so let's see how the Stags up to some other scores and other of computers that have been benchmarked let's go ahead and bring in a window here that talked about it so these are people that have published or deep bench result we're all pretty recent us we've got a macbook an older macbook late two thousand six with a intel core like a core two duo 1.3 came in at 2747 here's an imac with a core i5 so pretty pretty rough recent one here with a 2.63 giga processor 6874 here's a late 2010 macbook pro or the core 2 duo 2.4 3000 here are some other tests here's an imac with it's like two core two processors 12 cores ossa Mac Pro rather came in at a whopping squirts 30,000 could keep going down here with another mac pro another 30,000 oh we can go ahead and browse the most recent results and we'll see if we have any other scores here so here's an imac 85 I five we talked about here's another macbook pro here's a lenovo with a core i7 so another core i7 on a lenovo don't this laptop or desktop says run it was running windows 32-bit 4590 1 i've got a virtualbox machine here with an i7 chip came in at three thousand got a few other scores that will keep continuing down we've got a macbook pro 13-inch early 2010 3000 here's a mac pro with a 16,000 score here's a hackintosh with the 5000 scoring go-ahead and there are a lot of these you can go to browse geekbench dot CA you can get a lot of the scores in case you're curious so this is how the imac stacked up its test was pretty solid a 9000 is a relatively decent number it's fast you can sort of see how the integer selection shape up here this is my computer and this is sort of what some of the competition has been doing or average I suppose you can see that it's a pretty strong considering the newer computer you'd expect a relatively strong results I'll go ahead and keep scrolling down so you can see all these in case you guys are into geekbench scores I can sort of analyze these on your own so this was the total score here i'll be running another test using this in windows i've installed windows 7 home premium via bootcamp and we'll see how the steps up and compares on the window side and who dies hope you enjoyed this geekbench score i'll be doing a ton of other tests on the imac we doing some SSD tests and see how the solid-state drive and preach sings or henderson's as well so i'm jon rettinger from TechnoBuffalo and i will see you or talk to you in the next video bye bye you
