SYS info..

Accurate with displayed speeds etc??


Thanks

Looks like a overclocked 040? look at the oscillator on the 040 board to verify.It is probably correct.

Not sure what you mean,but... Its kinda sorta accurate on some stuff, usually 040 and less.060 will be reported incorrect usually.  Having buggy 040 libs can effect the results at times.

Back in the day we called it "sysMISinfo"  
It is useful for some stuff like checking lib versions and devs etc.Its hard drive speed tests are mediocre at best.

Ah ok.  it is a 28mhz Warp 040 .  But from what I understand new processor new oscillator can change all that?? .

Thank you.

Sounds logical. My 50 mhz Blizzard '030 is rated at 55.80 mhz :lol:

I wonder could that be the real speed?  With manufacturing tolerances and other factors.  I mean why print 55.80mhz on an oscillator or processor ..just round down to the nearest and print( I mean on the actual chip).. There is always a + or - % either way when it comes to electronics.  Could be SysInfo is pretty accurate...with somethings.
I'm probably way off so forgive me it is early.

Man I hate repeating myself!

AIBB is far more reliable than SysInfo for CPU speed determinations (except on 68060). I guess some people just love to beat a dead horse?

Cool I will have to check that out.  I have another Warp Engine card 040 @40mhz...yet shows 44mhz on sys
Info.  .  It is not critical really just playing around with the goodies.  It just amazes me at the growth and innovation of the Amiga and the 3rd party companies back in the day!!  Glad to be part of it then and now.
