Rendering and Scientific
CineBench 11.5
This rendering benchmark based off of the Cinema 4D engine is a terrific indicator for multi-threaded processing.

POV-Ray 3.7
POV-Ray has long been the poster child for multi-threaded processing and rendering.
Euler 3D Fluid Dynamics
This fluid dynamics simulation is very CPU and memory intensive. From the benchmark source website:
The benchmark testcase is the AGARD 445.6 aeroelastic test wing. The wing uses a NACA 65A004 airfoil section and has a panel aspect ratio of 1.65, a taper ratio of 0.66, and a 45 degree quarter-chord sweep angle. This AGARD wing was tested at the NASA Langley Research Center in the 16-foot Transonic Dynamics Tunnel and is a standard aeroelastic test case used for validation of unsteady, compressible CFD codes. Figure 1 shows the CFD predicted Mach contours for a freestream Mach number of 0.960.
The benchmark CFD grid contains 1.23 million tetrahedral elements and 223 thousand nodes. The benchmark executable advances the Mach 0.50 AGARD flow solution. Our benchmark score is reported as a CFD cycle frequency in Hertz.

Now that HD4000 has arrived,
Now that HD4000 has arrived, can OpenCL be used to enhance the performance of the Ivy Bridge processor while simultaneously using a discrete graphics processor? If OpenCL can utilize GPU cycles for general purpose compute tasks then It should be able to utilize the Intel integrated GPU for more general purpose processing power in addition to the Ivy bridge’s other CPU cores, while the discrete GPU uses its resources for the graphics. OpenCL should see all the hardware on the computer as an available resource and It should be able to do this? If not then what is described as Heterogeneous computing has not completely arrived yet! Or is it just a matter of waiting for the software to catch up?
OpenCL does not apply to
OpenCL does not apply to “general purpose” compute tasks. OpenCL applications are extremely parallel algorithms for specialized data sets, there’s nothing general purpose about it.
The “general purpose” in GPGPU simply means “not limited to graphics rendering”.

“And if you happen to be one
“And if you happen to be one of those poor fools still using a Pentium 4 processor – will you please save us all the early death of global warming and upgrade?”
Well, i still have one. I’m a PIV (with HT) big fan (smile*).

I recently got a i7 2600k PC with a GTX 680 graphics card. My motherboard is a Z77. Should I upgrade to the i7 3770k ? is the 10-15% worth the money ?
I got a 3770 and I love it!

You have ended my 4 day long hunt! God Bless you man. Have a nice day.
