Computer Drag Race

[BigMike]

Thought this would be fun

Unfortunately it only works using MS IE (if you want to use FireFox, you'll need the IE TAB extension).

Load up this page:
http://pcpitstop.com/pcpitstop/pitstop.asp

It might ask to install an Active Script, do it.

Then click on the "Ready? Let's go!" Link to begin.

After the test has completed it will ask for some geographical info which is optional, so just click the Go button at the bottom.

At the bottom of the next screen it says "Your Score? Click Here" and click there for your score!

Reply back with the following:

1. Computer Type (Laptop or Desktop)
2. Basic specs of your computer:
3. Weighted Processor Score:

For Steps 3-7 you could just take a screen shot of the score if you can

1. Work PC, custom built 4 years ago.
2. P4 2.4 Ghz, 1 GB Ram, Nvidia Geforce4 4400, 80 GB PATA drive.
3-7. See image.

[BigMike]

Wow, my Celeron 2.4 P4 beat out your non-Celeron 2.4 P4.... that is really strange.

I have no other programs opened, I think 22 or 23 processes loaded into Win XP Pro, idle processor is between 0-2% ...........

I wanna do it, but I think i'd get busted for Installing it

1. my home PC I built it like 4 years ago.
2.AMD Athlon XP2700+

[BigMike]

Duffil, are you on dialup?

Nice processor score. I'll run this test on my 2 yr old AMD 3200+ Gaming system when I get home

I'm tempted to run this on our VMware box that has 2 3.4 GHz dual core Xeons and 2 GB of ram (for one virtual machine). I'll see if I can.

So I lied, it's only 2.8 Ghz. But it looks like I still win. 

1. Portal server. 1 of 4 virtual machines running on one VMWare box.
2. 2x2.8 Ghz Intel Dual Core Xeons. 4 GB of ram, 120 GB on 3 15K SCSI drives in Raid5 configuration (all for this VM).

I don't know if it will work with vista and I don't want to get a from the IT guy.

DUDE! That is awesome! I didn't think about our server machine, it's got dual Xeon processors as well

[abnormaltoy]

I can't get this sucker to run. It makes it past all the graphics tests then shuts down during the software config test. I shut off my Norton's, my Zone Alarm and all my IE add ons.

No, it's that Clearwire DSL...that's odd, i used the fire2wire link you posted ages ago, and it showed like an 8xx/25x.

This is on a CPU that I built probably 6 years ago..   not bad I guess.

It did do well however against other similar systems!
Your system score of 97 indicates that 3 percent of all systems tested at PC Pitstop had a higher clock speed than your computer. Higher numbers are better of course, with 100
meaning it's in the top 1 percent of all the systems we've tested."
