Hi all,
last weekend I made the upgrade from my P100 - P150 (both intel).
I ran some benchmark tests before and after with the result that the
P150 decreased my processor occupancy by about 30%.
All tests of processor occupancy run at Monaco:::texture on track & smoke
:::no mirrors:::framerate=16.0:::Detail off/all (Doff,Dall) as indicated.
S3SPDUP run before testing (though for me it only consistently saves 6%,
not a big deal, but every 6% helps!)
P100 Doff P100 Dall P150 Doff P150 Dall
Pole, pre race 118% 187% 87% 131%
Last, pre race 143% 193% 100% 137%
1st place, full lap 75% to 112% 81% to 225% 62% to 81% 62% to 150%
in traffic,full lap 75% to 162% 106% to 237% 62% to 125% 68% to 150%
I made sure I bought the P150 from a store with a no questions asked
return policy just to be sure. Obviously I recommend anyone else
considering an upgrade to do likewise...
Have fun!
