VaporX Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Of note is the fact that this set of tests are more CPU heavy in their composite score. In fact it is not just leaning toward the CPU but actually leaning more heavily on threading. As an example a friend that has a Phenom II 1090T at stock and his CPU score was actually higher than my i5 3550 at 3.9Ghz. Now it was just barely but it shows that cores make a difference in a much larger manner than in previous tests. I think it is kind of interesting that AMD video cards and the FX processors with their high core count seem to be benefiting most from the new test design.

Guest_Jim_* Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 The Android version has just been released, so if you want to compare your Android device to your computer, or other Android devices, download and check it out! Currently it only has the Ice Storm test, also in the Windows version, and a new Ice Storm Extreme test, which will be added to the other versions later. No release date for the iOS version yet.

Guest_Jim_* Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Forgot to mention that some chips have issues with the test, including the OMAP 4460 chip in my phone (which is why I'm not going to be posting any scores from it). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest_Jim_* Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 4140 on Galaxy S3. Charging my old droid 3 to see what it does. The benchmark has a minimum OS requirement of 3.1, so make sure your Droid 3 has that installed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonerboy779 Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Icestorm score 10413 on my Xperia ZL The average for the ZL is supposedly 9289 so I am happy. Its also ~8x better than my GS2. My score puts me in a close 4th above the average HTC One and below the GS4, Sharp Aquos and Pan tech Vega R3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
