Some help plz on L1/L2 cache P4 N/W
Hello
Sorry guys I dont know whether this is in the right place or not but plz bear with me. System spec:- P4 1.8 Northwood, ABIT BD7 mobo, 512Mb PC2100 DDR Cas 2 Ram, Radeon 8500 64Mb GFX card, Win XP Home. All standard not overclocked. Ok ...right I have had two other threads running for which I had a bit of stick over (wont go into that, its over and done with). Anyways I have had to revert back to my 2.3 catalyst drivers for a smoother gameplay and a bench mark has confirmed better results even though the score is apparently not as high as it should be (I have pasted the full results at the end) I would like someone to give advice on some of the results listed in the system info section. 1/ These cache readings dont seem to be what I thought the P4 Northwoods had I thought it was 256k level one and level two. Also it appears that the Level two cache is disabled. CACHES Level 1 Capacity 16 KB Type Internal Type Details Synchronous Error Correction Type <unknown> Associativity <unknown> Level 2 Capacity 16 KB Type Disabled at Boot, External Type Details Synchronous Error Correction Type <unknown> Associativity <unknown> 2/ I have opened my AGP port size in the BIOS to 128Mb and the bench mark gave the following readings. My concern is that it would appear that I only have 55Mb available/being used out of the 64MB on the GFX card. Total Local Video Memory 64 MB Total Local Texture Memory 64 MB Total AGP Memory 55 MB Can anybody offer any advice on these issues and corrective measures if they are wrong. I am not a complete NOOB but I will admit most of this is above me. I appologise for the long post and also if it is in the wrong place (maybe a MOD could move it where more applicable) I am desperatly trying to cure a Ping spiking problem with my NTL BB that I get wilst playing Unreal Tournament and everybody keeps telling me its my PC and not NTL (well NTL would say that) I have disabled a lot of Windows services as advised by this guide WWW.blackviper.com/WinXP/servicecfg.htm (I chose the gaming option but not all of them). Any help would be most appreciated N4sty 3DMARK2001 PROJECT FILE PROJECT Name My Benchmark Description Registration Name Registration Key 3DMark Version 330 DISPLAY Platform RADEON 8500/RADEON 8500LE CPU Optimization D3D Pure Hardware T&L Width 1024 Height 768 Depth 32 bit Z-Buffering 24 bit Texture Format Compressed Buffering Double Refresh Rate Default FSAA Mode None OPTIONS Show Title Screens No Continuous Benchmark No Benchmark Run Count 1 Demo Sounds Enabled Yes Continuous Demo No Game Sound Effects Enabled Yes Game Music Enabled Yes Game Detail Level High RESULTS 3DMark Score 8124 Game 1 - Car Chase - Low Detail 124.0 fps Game 1 - Car Chase - High Detail 40.1 fps Game 2 - Dragothic - Low Detail 139.2 fps Game 2 - Dragothic - High Detail 76.6 fps Game 3 - Lobby - Low Detail 117.6 fps Game 3 - Lobby - High Detail 52.5 fps Game 4 - Nature 46.7 fps Fill Rate (Single-Texturing) 804.0 MTexels/s Fill Rate (Multi-Texturing) 2053.5 MTexels/s High Polygon Count (1 Light) 37.5 MTriangles/s High Polygon Count (8 Lights) 9.7 MTriangles/s Environment Bump Mapping 110.8 fps DOT3 Bump Mapping 87.1 fps Vertex Shader 86.3 fps Pixel Shader 100.1 fps Advanced Pixel Shader 79.8 fps Point Sprites 28.0 MSprites/s SYSTEM INFO System Info Version 2.2 Installation ID 0x00000000 OEM ID CPU INFO CENTRAL PROCESSING UNITS Manufacturer Intel Family Pentium® 4 Internal Clock 1.81 GHz Internal Clock Maximum 4 GHz External Clock 100 MHz Socket Designation Socket 478 Type <unknown> Upgrade ZIF Socket Capabilities MMX, CMov, RDTSC, SSE, SSE2 Version Intel Pentium(R) 4 CPUID 0x00000f24 CACHES Level 1 Capacity 16 KB Type Internal Type Details Synchronous Error Correction Type <unknown> Associativity <unknown> Level 2 Capacity 16 KB Type Disabled at Boot, External Type Details Synchronous Error Correction Type <unknown> Associativity <unknown> DIRECTX INFO DirectX Version 9.0 DIRECTDRAW INFO DirectDraw Version 5.3.0000000.900 DISPLAY DEVICES Description Primary Display Driver Manufacturer ATI Technologies Inc.

Well, first, your 3dmark score actually seems inline with what a system of that caliber should get.
Second, 3dmark doesn't identify my willemette p4 correctly either, download SiSoft Sandra 2002 and it should give you an accurate description of your CPU. Third, Northwood P4s have 16k L1 caches, and 512k L2 caches. Willemettes have 16k and 256k. If you find you only have 256k, you got sold a Willemette in socket 478 format and should contact your supplier. Fourth, if the L1 and L2 caches are disabled, you can try re-enabling them in your BIOS. Fifth, contact intel tech support...or your motherboards' tech support. hope it helps! |
