i am planning to buy a AMD FX 8320. And also a GTX 970. I have used intel till date. Do you think, AMD will perform well in the field of mining ? Or it will interrupt GPU mining??

AMD alone wont interrupt GPU in general, but bundled with magi will do.  Grin

cpu limit program:
1. ubuntu
    apt-get -y install cpulimit  
    example: cpulimit -l 50 -p 1234

2. windows
    bes  ( http://mion.faireal.net/BES/  )
  
Both tested and easy to use.    

Good to know. Also this repo: https://github.com/magi-project/m-cpuminer-legacy-v2

i7 3770s stock frequency doing 48 kh/s with 3 threads

can you do test with 8 threads pls

I can in a week or so, when I get back to the USA.  I'm remoting into that machine, and it doesn't work well with it completely loaded.

Some more results from me:

Intel C2D 6320 slightly O.C. to 2.1GHz:  16kh/s   -t 2
Intel Celeron G1620 @ 2.7GHz:      26kh/s     -t 2
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ @ 2.0GHz:    7kh/s     -t 1

All running Ubuntu 12.04.

sorry merge i didnt test any 2500k yet ill post here and pm you as soon as i test one, but at that clock it should be faster than bobbens cpu at stock, but i benched few i5 today all on win 8.1 and suprize,

i5 4690K 3.50 ghz 77.2 
i5 3570K 3.40 ghz 73.9 
i5 750   2.67 ghz 43.6 

even i5 4690k cannot match bobben2 i5-4460, bobben you did great job with optimizing miner

i know that ubuntu uses less resources than windows but there is so big difference, i can not be sure about this bc i didint myself benched any cpu on linux only on windows, but many people posted here or pm me that are mining on linux and difference is huge ill wait for goldlabels tests he has many cpus and compare with mine and others than ill know more.

My CPU: Intel i5 2500K OC to 4,5 GHZ ~65khs/s on windows 8.1

Interesting. According to http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-2500K+%40+3.30GHz&id=804 that is the hashrate I would expect at standard clock speed.

So my CPU is not running at 100% hashrate? Do you have one to test it?

I don't have one myself. I would certainly have a look at CPU core temperatures to see if thermal throttling was an issue. The miner pushes a CPU to the limit.


I ment hefty with the testing part Wink

http://i.imgur.com/GODFMDk.png --> as you can see it shows me 100% + OC

merge this cpu that bobben2 have is only a little faster cpu than yours there shouldnt be more than 2-3 khash difference

and this is what bobben2 posted

Hefty,
I have one i5-4460 Has(h)well on ubuntu 12.04.
It does  ~81kh/s @ -t 4 at stock freq, stock cooler, temp goes up to 65 deg.

so it seems that ubuntu is yielding so much more hash than win 7, 8.1
also i have different hash today than few days ago on same exact machines, differences of 2-3 khash it will be so hard to pinpoint exact hash for any cpu right now. Only by starting simple ap like cpuz while hashing will lower your hash by 1khash on some systems so many things like different mobos etc can give you so many different results. I will need to make at least 2 separate lists for linux and windows bc for now what im getting from other users difference is so big between different os to calculate they hash together.

Well my cpu is older, 2500K series made with 32nm tech bobben2's is probably 22 nm and more efficient i guess. Do you have other 2500K results?

Ahem..
Sorry for skewing the measurement somewhat.
I must admit I tweaked the miner that Wolf and Joe had already optimized. So I think my miner is approx. 10% faster.
Differences on the OS side: My guess is that mining under Windows is slower due to all the background tasks that
seem to run incessantly and beyond user control in Windows.

My Macbook Air 2013 has an I5-4250U processor (2-core 4-thread cpu)
Running -t 4 gives 28kh/s.  MacOS (obviously) Yosemite.

Hi,

I got 280 pc`s, core2duo, I3, i5, i7 and some amd 8320 and 8350.
If i can help testing let me know.

wow sure you can  Grin, can you pm me results i need all help i could get im little short with buldozzers, i5, 6 core i7s, and all off them on linux  Cheesy i can only test on windows.



Oke, I can np, but are you testing just with the normal output (cmd screen) what miner or program you want me to use for testing?

im testing with last spexx miner, 1 instance normal output all threads/cores, stock speed on cpu. thanks
