Re: 4th Gen i7 MAME benchmarks, totally stock clock speeds

Ok, so after a few set backs, like some how in the shift of data around on my hard drives since the last time I benched MAME, I managed to loss all the ROMs used benchmarking, none of the other ROMs just the folder I use for benchmarking! 
So after a quick trip to my favourite download site later, I had the ROMs I needed. Then I just had to brush up on how to bench MAME, it so long since I last did it I'd never used the -bench command or not that I could remember, It a lot easier than the old way once you realise it the "bench" is case sensitive. :P
I ran all the games once first, to make sure any service setting that need changing to make the game run were set.
Anyway I will not bore you anymore, here are the first set of benchmarks at totally stock clock speeds.
3.5GHz 4th Gen i7 Quad Core with Hyper-Threading enable, stock Intel Turbo Boost to 3.9GHz. 16GB DDR3-1866 memory, on a Z87 motherboard, running Windows 7 SP1 64bit, and MAME64 v0.148u5.
John IV 2nd Gen i7-2600K overclocked @ 4.8GHz running MAME64 v0.141 for comparison. http://www.mameui.info/Bench/Bench.htm
blitz Average speed: 283.25% (89 seconds) 258
dolphin Average speed: 48.90% (89 seconds) 38
gauntleg Average speed: 349.74% (89 seconds) 370
gradius4 Average speed: 197.50% (89 seconds) 236
propcycl Average speed: 228.13% (89 seconds) 259
radikalb Average speed: 219.24% (89 seconds) 210
scud Average speed: 120.97% (89 seconds) 149
starsldr Average speed: 103.26% (89 seconds) 85
So I think we can safely say this thing is a beast, it's not even at 3.9Ghz (actual number is 3891MHz due to bus speed being a little low @ 99.77MHz) and it't already kicking a 4.8Ghz Sandy Bridge to the curb.
Now I know you want more, but Gigabyte's latest UEFI bios is total alien to me, It's looks more like the current generation of ASUS UEFI bois than anything Gigabyte has done to date, and the UI is just as buggy as the ASUS if not a little more, and I too tired right now to start playing with it. So higher clock speed will have to wait for tomorrow.
If all else fails, Burn the manual.
