Tried Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 i just installed leopard and everything looked perfect until i ran Xbench and Geekbench tests. The results were downright disappointing: xbench:51.25 Geekbench: 1119 anyone please shed some light on these low results? is it my mac or leopard?

focus5D Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hmm, that's strange I have a 15" MBP 2.2GHZ 2GBRAM and got 106.67 on Xbench. What kind of installation method did you use? I did an archive/install and noticed Leopard was just way too sluggish. So I did a clean install and my MBP was performing a lot better. I'm not saying it's great right now cause I'm still experiencing some crappy performance issues here and there. Too bad I didn't get a chance to run Xbench beforehand. Anyway good luck with your MBP man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sg Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 xbench is incredibly useless as a benchmark and quite possibly the dumbest thing to ever be released. about the only good thing it provides is the hard disk benchmarks, the cpu/graphics are worthless. if you're interested in your systems actual performance (cpu/mem/etc) use geekbench, if you you want to measure your 2d/3d performance, get a game of some sort and get the FPS.
