SuperPI calculates the pi number. The software was written by D.Takahashi and it was used for the successful the calculation of the pi up to 4,294,960,000 decimal digits in the university of Tokyo in 2005. This record-breaking program was also ported to personal computer environment such as Windows and it has become an utility to benchmark modern systems.
The software offers up to 32M calculations of PI numbers. For all our CPUs we tested up to 8M calculations:
The Asus Rampage Extreme system finished the calculations faster than any other motherboard including the P5E3 Premium.
- wPrime
wPrime is a benchmarking application designed to use a highly multithreaded approach to calculating the square-roots of large amounts of numbers (up to 32 billion at this stage!)
wPrime uses all four cores of quad processors, therefore it can finish the task much faster than an Intel C2D.
All tested Asus motherboard have similar performance. The Asus Rampage Extreme system needs 17.000secs to finish the calculation task.
