Wow, I didn't see any high PPC scores, so here's mine:
CPU: 1.67
2 Gigs of RAM
17" Powerbook
(You can check the Apple website for the rest of the info if you need it)
Score: 137.2
http://ladd.dyndns.org/xbench/merge.xhtml?doc2=117132 (For Stats)
I hope this helps for comparison.
Good Luck guys!

OSX86 isn't compiled with 64bit compat. Also, some people report that disabling hyperthreading gives you a better xbench score. Not too sure about general performance though as I dont have a HT enabled CPU (its a 1.8ghz crudbox).

specs are here: http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=1910

scored 17.59 (ouch)

isnt xbench running in roseta, which would be why intel systems score so much lower than powerpc? (sorry if this it totaly stupid and posted somewhere else already, too lazy too look)

Nope, Xbench is now a universal binary

Final score: 46.21

Quit using xbench to compare x86 to ppc. It is an invalid comparison on this benchmark. xbench is farely useless in general really, but people like numbers I guess.

Yeah, it was supposed to be just a general 'Post your X86 OS X results' thread.. but then PPC people joined the bandwagon! Not that its a problem at all

heres a Pentium M @ 2.32ghz
rest of the specs are on the page

I get 61.45

hello there,

after having a couple of nightmares and a lot of trial and error moments (more error moments though) i managed to install deadmoo's image and it almost ran perfect for me (almost !!)


sure i felt great about it and did an Xbench test to see what I have (although i have no idea what this score actually means)..

First my specs :

even though i know that i have to be extremely happy about managing it to run on a 1,8GHz machine well with only SSE2, i also have some problems... and to some problems i just found my own solutions (to one problem, to be specific).

- touchpad works, tapping does not (i dont really need it, buttons work)
- network card functioned right away
- USB optical mouse works (wheel too but wheelbutton doesnt)
- graphics: 1024x768 (i read some stuff about ATI cards but i am kinda overloaded right now to deal with it. anybody got a simple explanation?)
- memory card reader (havent checked yet)
- firewire (havent checked yet)
- keyboard (works well.... but... the image is english, my keyboard is turkish. the choices in system preferences under keyboard dont have ''turkish notebook keyboard'' )
- wireless intel (i guess will never function, maybe i should get a usb wireles thing, what dou say?)

one of the biggest problems was that DDing the image on to the drive took very long. My first trial was over a network. as i only have a notebook and no usb drive, i tried to installit using knoppix live cd connected to another xp machine via samba. of course the filesize limitation caused failure every time. after 4 nights in a row with no sleep, i gave up because i have to work and earn a living, too. then a good friend of mine gave me his usb drive and the party began.

i tried the usual methods. started with knoppix and changed drive specs and partitions using cfdisk (after so many samba tries one starts to do it with closed eyes!!) and started the famous dd bs=1048576 command.... then i read one could also write bs=10M or even 1G ! i tried the latter but failed as i only have 512mb memory. so i stuck with 30M and let the notebook dd the image a complete night long (no bullshit! i left it at the office and it was finished when i got back the next morning. i left my office at 2 o'clock in the morning, by the way)

then i started the system using -x and changed deadmoo's stuff and made my own and deleted his. feeling a little scared about deleting those ATI files, i tried to start my system a new and met this famous error message telling me i have to restart which i of course did and then applied MAXXUSS patch for SSE2>SSE3 and deleted the ATI files and all started making sense and fun all of a sudden.

i read about a million posts about resizing the install partition... which i almost didnt understand at all...so what i did was to pop in my knoppix cd once again and call cfdisk and changed the file type of the remaining fortysomething GBs into AF which i then erased and made available using disk utility.

at the moment the only two problems are ATI (because i like my 1280x800) and wireless. apart from that i have to admit i am very pleased with the general performance. all software works ! itunes, iphoto, iIdontknowwhat, etc...everything... most probably everything else i shall install shall function, too.

one trick i came across while reading stuff on the internet :

if you dont really really really need them : uninstall Dashboard and Spotlight as they slaughter your RAM real bad ! and if you dont feel fit about resizing the install partition, just do what i did and keep using it as a second disc (yes, it is automatically mounted and yes you can install your software on it, too)

well this would be the happy end of my story...

i would like to thank :

Jake
Tek
Macindell

for their precious help and suggestions while i was struggling with installation over network via samba (didnt work, sorry guys !).

i would also like to thank :

shizo
joelogic

for looking like as they would help but actually doing nothing but confusing a newbie.

if anyone has an idea about how i could fix these mentioned two problems, i'd be more than all ears !

thank you all !

Never going to happen

My Dell Inspiron 1100. (posted about the success of its install yesterday)

CPU : Intel Celeron CPU 2.39 GHz (p4-based, SSE2)
Memory: 256 MB DDR SDRAM 266 MHz
HD : HTE726040M9AT00 - 37.26 GB - 7200 RPM - not a stock Dell part

Xbench results :

A64 2800+ (SSE2)
1Gb DDR RAM
ATI 9800Pro



My G3 iBoox (700MHz) gets 14.54.

46.96

I am running a home built..

AMD 4000+ (clawhammer so SSE2 only)
MSI K8N Neo4/SLI
2 gig Ram
BFG Geforce 6800 ULTRA Overclock PCI-E 256mrg


After seeing some other scores I thought the 4000+ would kick a little ass, kind of dissapointed

Your tests are unfair! You used a RAM Drive, OF COURSE your HD transfers will be OFF THE WALL! also, how did you get your QE tests so high? I see that you have a ATI9600, and I have a 6600GT, but I get less than half your score...


My results

55 (do not have EXACT number but it is something lit 54.7, or so)

AMD 3000+@2.13GHz Winchester (SSE2 only, but with patch to SSE3)
1GB DDR400@438 (2*219Mhz)
Nvidia 6600GT
40GB IGB 60GXP 7200rpm

I think that is just about it for the specs... later I will post brakdown results, but I am in Windows mode right now and dont feel like switching back at the moment...

It is interesting that my QE score is around 70 or so considering that it is 'unacclerated' and QE is 'not supported'...

Your HD, and maybe isn't running in DMA.

Were i see, whether my System is running with dma? Can i activatet?

See this thread: http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=593

Thanks for your reply Macgirl. On the first test the HD wasn´t running in DMA, but on the second test I have made the nforce3 tweak and the results suffered an improvement, anyway this is a too old HD

(Please, excuse my bad english)

Specs in signature. Installed Maxxuss 0.5c patch the 0.1a NVidia.kext.
Xbench Both through VMWare (Maxxuss Ethernet, so I can surf + @85Hz instead of ~)
and Native (much, much faster, but no onboard Ethernet working yet
and @60Hz because of the infamous VESA 3.0 Geforce 6600 PCIe, so undoable).
Complete results included as attachments.

What do you guys think?
I find the Disk test rather low in both VMWare & Native...
Any suggestions on this or the other stuff?
I was wondering: the AppleIntelPIIATA.kext works only on Intel boards...since VMWare emulates Intel chipset, could I benefit from it? And could the AppleOnboardPCATA.kext be beneficial to my native install?

My system's Hardware:
CPU: Pentium 4 1.5 GHz @ 1.75GHz (no SSE3)
Mainboard: Albatron 845PE
Memory: 512Mb PC2700 (2x256Mb modules)
Harddisk: an old 12.7Gb ATA
Graphics: VESA 3.0 compatible, Asus 7100 32Mb (nVidea MX400)
Network: buildin 3com does not work but it is shown in the list, card in PCI3 works (unknown type)
Sound: AC97 (onboard) works, Soundblaster Live! 5.1 does not work

Extra:
extra ATA controllor not found
Real Magic Hollywood + MPEG2 decodercard not found
DVD+RW (Nec) not recognised as burner

I used the SSE3 -> SSE2 patch.

I can't set the screen's resolution to anything higher then 1024x768, because the screen I get when I set it at 1280x1024 will be in grayscale. Even if I specify the colordepth (x32 or x24) it's still in grayscale. Also specifying a refreshrate (@75) won't help.
