it's a brand new computer, what are your thoughts, should be better, don't you think?

Re: LIVE 8 PERFORMANCE TEST - Results Here
Well its apparently only just over half the speed of my macbook pro running the 8 track test on win7/64 or OSX with same audio interface, but the 2.3GHz i7-2820QM CPU and 1333MHz memory.prr wrote: it's a brand new computer, what are your thoughts, should be better, don't you think?

At 64 tracks I think it was on about 80-85% CPU - never checked at 32.
I would have expected a lot better from the CPU (18-20%), but who knows what OEM support hardware and crippling is in it, memory, HD etc.
Try searching up for the base spec 2011 15" MBP - probably the closest CPU (i7-2635QM) - same speed etc I think, just different package and gfx may be a tiny bit faster.
Nothing to see here - move along!
Re: LIVE 8 PERFORMANCE TEST - Results Here
so yours is twice as fast but mine is 1/3 the cost
I checked the windows resource monitor while running the ableton test, and it peaks at %20, it says ableton is using 8% of my cpu and the next highest on the list is System Interupts (deffered procedure calls and interrupt service routines) at %2 - anybody know what that is?
why does ableton show the cpu peaking so much higher than the windows 7 resource monitor?

Re: LIVE 8 PERFORMANCE TEST - Results Here
also, my computer is showing 8 processors on a quadcore, so that means hyperthreading is enabled. does anyone know if I disable hyperthreading will live run better and have less of a load on the cpu?
thanks,
Jeff

Re: LIVE 8 PERFORMANCE TEST - Results Here
Anyone got an iMac 2011 ? I would be interested in the results, especially for the i7 3.4 gHz...
Re: LIVE 8 PERFORMANCE TEST - Results Here
Updated Performance Test... I resolved the issue as to why the cpu meter was running higher than it should have been.
At first I thought it was because hyperthreading was enabled (there is no option in the BIOS to turn it off). I also had previously uninstalled all the bloatware and optimized my computer for audio. The only software I didn't uninstall was Asus Power4Gear Hybrid. It turns out this was the cause of my Ableton CPU readings to spike at 29%... see original test below.

note: the only other thing I did to my computer was install Seagate Drive setting software so my external drive would stop spinning down all the time. However, I was running the ableton test off of my desktop (C drive) so I don't think this could have helped in any way.
I gotta say this computer rocks, especially for the price. Cheers.
