flops

[DanLatimer]

how do you tell how many flops your cpu can handle?

 

[Cromewell]

you run a benchmark or look up the theoretical numbers.

 

[DanLatimer]

do you know of any good benchmark programs?

what are flops

 

[DanLatimer]

flops are how many operations per second your processor can handle

 

[ckfordy]

k thanks

 

[apj101]

flops are how many operations per second your processor can handle

flops are floating point operations your processor can handle per second. Its not the same as how many operations per seconds

 

[DanLatimer]

well thats what i ment, the number of basic operations...
whatever floats your boat.. or point as the case may be haha
