Super PI Features

[Fausty]

I want to know the details about the Super PI software. If you have details about this application then give me details about that. I have tried to search this on internet, but unable to get that. So, if you are having that then give me that. I want to use that. I have Windows Xp operating system on my computer.

Super PI is having details as below:

• Version: 1.1e
• OS: Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2K/XP
• File Size: 71.49 KB
• MD5: b5eebfaaa0da87641b289a28b7a25a8a

Super Pi creates a file that contains an approximate value of pi, the precision of this value depends on the number of digits contained in the file and therefore its size. The software therefore allows to choose the size of the file before its calculation, has 16k 32M. The time will put the computer to create this file is measured and reported during and at the end of the calculation.

The duration for the calculation depends mainly on the type of processor, The RAM and especially their frequencies. Thus we can compare the performance of two Processors has different scores or frequencies equal. But this software is monothreader, That is to say that he can use one of multiple core processors lately, which limits the comparison has a core architecture only. To overcome this problem, there is hyper Pi.

A team of overclockers has created a version of Super Pi, which allows to know the duration of computation more accurate. The mod also adds checksum so that the user can prove their score. Super Pi is software Free to calculate figures Pi (Π) after the comma, up 32 million. I have used it and it is having really nice working and also having faster response. You need to use that.

Following are some of the similar applications for benchmarking :

• CPU-Z
• HD Speed
• Cache Burst 32
• Monitor Asset Manager
• Cable / DSL Speed Tests
• PC Pitstop
• Motherboard Monitor

I don't think that you require much details about this application. I have some of the history for the software.This little program originally designed in 1995 by D. Takahashi collaboration allowed the time to calculate 4,294,960,000 decimal on Windows platform with a Pentium 90MHz with 40MB of memory. The original program has been written FORTRAN and was then transcribed into C using the program F2C. The algorithm used is the "Gauss-Legendre", which has made portable on platforms such as Windows NT and Windows 95.
