Man thank you so much, that was the easiest thing ever lol, I can't believe I didn't figure that out...Thanks again!

Hi there! What should the benchmarks for a Dual-2.7 GHz G5 be? My benchmarks improved a lot after installing the alpha 5.2 worker, but they're still only half of what the top Powe…

Ok, found it. ;-) Installing the beta client helped resolve the problems mentioned above.

those Top Macs are Quad CPU, so they should score way higher then your Dual machine

I've still yet to see results from a DC2.3. Anyone have one to try it?

I was quite dissapointed of dual 2.7ghz performance. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_...hostid=1789945 My DC 2.3ghz's outperforms that easily. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/sh…

Yeah, the 2.7 seems to be suffering from a clash between the RAMs and the FSBs speeds.

Interesting... Your 2.7 gets about what my 2.5 does. Actually, a little worse in some cases. It should do a bit better but....what kind of ram? My 2.5 has PC3200-30330 ram…

Don't expect any of these machines to scale linearly in performance with clock speed. The determining factor here is definitely L2 cache and memory bandwidth, although the clock sp…

What I notice most of all is that there seems to be large variation even between machines of the same type. I ponder whether some G5 chips work better than others for reasons of…

Hi, I thought this was the appropriate forum for this question, so if it isn't, I'm sorry and please move it, thanks. I need your opinion on this. The Mac OS system appeals to me …

Oh, and can anyone also tell me if the Apple button lights up on the new iMac G5?

Authoring should be comparable on both platforms, but the Windows Flash plugin runs a lot faster than the Mac version. What Apple button are you referring to?

Oops, I shouldn't have said "button" but rather "logo". The Apple logo on the front. I've seen that it lights up on the notebook computers. Ok, I just wanted to make sure that aut…

Yup, the Apple logo is backlit on Apple's laptops. Q. for all: is the Flash plug-in on Macs still *that* much slower than on Windows? It sure as hell used to be, but the latest …

I use it and find it perfectly fine, it runs at a decent enough speed on new macs (mines an old G4 800 powerbook) and if your content is running really slow you probably need to op…

Note: for reference, check out my game at www.ninja-man.com All done in flash. First up, plugin performance. Yes its been **** forever, but flash8 is substantially better - on a G…

Hmm. Flash opens in around 7 seconds? That's faster than my current computer. But my computer is getting old anyways. :x
