I need some help please. I have been gone or at least not active posting. I had to rebuild my hard drive and did some upgrade to software and hard ware. What I would like/need is an easy Optimized APP, something a dummy can do quickly. I ran CPU-Z and I have MX, SSE (1,2,3s), Em64T, and vtx. I also have twin GTX 570’s. What would work best for me? Any ideas and links would be great.

thanks

Try the Lunatics Windows installer, Here, I highly recommend It.

I assume your machine has ssse3 and SSE4.1 ability. If I were you I'd simply use the Lunatics Unified installer and chose through that.

I would recommend using the SSSE3x version for your rig :) It's the one most people seem to use around here. But yes, the Lunatics unified installer is by far the easiest way of optimising your rig :D

C2D Q6600's don't have SSE4.1 ability,

From what I've been told around here, the SSSE3x app is faster than SSE4.1 app anyway :o

that all depends on the CPU. IIRC the newer Intel chips (i7's) run faster on the sse4.1 I may be mistaken since I don't do intel chips

I don't have a C2Q to run test on. However I am doing on long term test with my home i7-860 using the SSE4.1 app. Then 5 i7-860's at work 5012752, 5049864, 5168805, 5369466, & 5369492 using the SSSE3.

So far it is hard to say but the completion times for the 4.1 app are faster. Even though I had my machine at home clocked down a little due to cooling issues. time will see how it plays out.

From what you've both been told around here, several times, by the person who wrote the application: a lot of it depends on the memory sub-system attached to the CPU.

Jason made the SSE4.1 app on his Core2 Duo E8400 OC. In this time, no Core2 Quad (and of course no Core iX's ;-) was available for buying/testing.

Though I sense a rather strong hint of condenscension, a quick forum search shows I've asked once, and been told once. Furthermore, I fail to find a reply from the author of the application.

Forgive me for trying to help someone else out.

On my 2500K, running 4.5 GHz with 1866/10 memory, SSSE3x(x64) is faster than SSE4.1, with like 3-4%.
