in my spec i have the i7 6 cores, mac seems to see 1 cpu and 6 cores how ever in benchmark test (geek bench) I'm getting the same score for multi score as single score...looks strange, like the program don't see 6 cores but the information coming from mac so...any idea?

thanks Allan, yes it does show 12 threads (6*2) but why the benchmark showing results so low…what is the best way to run benchmarks?

 

used xbench, the test run like 8 seconds really fast see attached results...are they any good?

Did you install voodootscsync? Usually you need that for a 6-core. http://forge.voodooprojects.org/p/voodootscsync/ make sure to set IOCPUNumber=11 in the info.plist to enable all 6 cores as well as the 6 virtual cores.

 

Also I think clover has a setting that serves the same purpose but I'm not sure.

 

Edit: also, make sure you are NOT using the cpus=1 boot argument!
