AMD A6-3650 2.6GHz Llano APU Review

Hyper Pi

Hyper Pi is a front end mod for Super Pi. Hyper Pi allows you to run multiple instances of Super Pi automatically without manually setting processor affinity. Super Pi is a utility that allows you to calculate between 16 thousand and 32 million decimal places of Pi. Pi was originally calculated to 33.5 million places using a Pentium 90MHz processor, 40MB of main memory, and 340MB of available storage. This system was able to calculate the 33.5 million digits within 3 days! Fortunately we are able to do it a little bit quicker today.

Benchmark Results: Clock speeds and memory bandwidth dominate when calculating Pi. The AMD A6-3650 isn’t that impressive running Super Pi and certainly isn’t anything to write home about.
