alnova1 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I just installed 6 more gigs of memory ( making a total of 8) and it seems my memory scores are about the same...my overall seems to be lower. I know that there can be problems with memory over 8 gigs but i disabled my JMicron IDE and everything has been running great. I have posted my specs and scores. Maybe I'm expecting too much. Thanks for any help. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/141878-does-anyone-use-geek-bench/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any help. Your memory bandwidth scores are not going to improve unless you lowered the latency/increased the speed it is running at anyways. Adding more memory would help with benchmarks that require/can use more physical memory in order to run them I don't think that is the case with Geekbench but would be with something like Cinebench where it comes in handy rendering the scenes. That said your scores are about a third less than mine which is to be expected as your processors are running at that much lower than mine so I would say everything is as it should be.

Sounds good, thanks for the info. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/141878-does-anyone-use-geek-bench/#findComment-1006576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
