Benchmarking your device with PPSSPP

[solarmystic]

Okay I know I've made an entry using my ancient Core 2 laptop, but I just tried it on my even older decrepit 8 year old Pentium 4 desktop rig running XP, and the results blew my mind. Seriously.



System CPU: Intel Pentium 4 630 3.0 GHz (with HT)
System RAM: 1 GB DDR2 RAM
System GPU type: ATI Radeon X800XL 256 MB GDDR3 VRAM
System OS: Windows XP 32-Bit SP3
System device type: PC

Seriously, I couldn't believe the VPS readings. My P4 rig scores higher in this test compared to my Core 2 rig which is on paper 4 times more powerful and has a gfx card that is on paper at least 3 times more powerful. It seems like Windows XP really is a hell of a drug lol, we may have to actually take into account performance differences introduced by different OSes. Also, it seems like AMD/ATI's older XP OGL drivers may be superior to their newer ones for Windows 7/8.

(I tripled checked again and again for accuracy, and this is lowest measurement. All settings are as required by Daxtsu's first post.)
