*OFFICIAL* Pi-to-1M Calculating Contest. How fast can YOU be?

[Evolution.]

Alright, here's the deal. This thread is pretty much going to be a scoreboard to see who on GTP has the fastest processor. We're doing this based on Super Pi Mod, which calculates how fast your processor can calculate pi.

Follow these steps:

1. Download Super Pi

2. Extract the .exe file and pi_data.txt to anywhere on your computer (as long as they are in the same folder).

3. Run Super Pi

4. You should now see this screen:



5. Click on "Calculate (C)" in the upper left corner.

6. Choose 1M from the drop down list.

7. Let the loops run.

8. Go back to this screen when it is finished:



9. Post a screenshot of that screen to verify your 1M times.

The fastest ever recorded is something like 12.125s on an overclocked E6700 Conroe chip.

---------------------------------------

LEADERBOARD RULES

1. You MUST verify your time with a screenshot.

2. All times are welcome, don't feel ashamed.

3. (OPTIONAL) Please tell us your processor, memory, power supply, and motherboard if you can.

4. (NEW) Only 1 entry will be accepted. If you submit mutliple entries, your fastest entry will be counted.

5. (NEW) To see system specifications, click the link to each contestant's times. Some may not have specs listed.

This sucks.

You can only run the test on a single core.

Edit: You can run two instances at the same time, as long as you set the affinity and name differently on each instance, although the score isn't really that accurate (the application wasn't meant for use on dual-core processors, and doesn't run as well as it could on them). I'll upload my scores in a bit anyways.

[3-Wheel Drive]

Is there a prize for the slowest times?


Behold the awesome speed of my 5-yr old computer!

 

[Seanman]

I got 55 seconds on my laptop, with its aging P4 and 512 of ram.

 

[Max Powers]

I got 58.1 seconds on my laptop, I actually expected it to be slower.

Can we start putting the times in your post guys? It sucks having to go into the pictures to update the leaderboard, especially when the picture is ridiculously small *cough*Ebiggs*cough*.
