About: PiFast with BenchMatePiFast with BenchMate is a benchmark version of PiFast that runs on the BenchMate platform, a benchmark validation and monitoring system developed specifically for the overclocking community and professional hardware testing. By combining the power of PiFast as a lightweight and fast single-thread benchmark with BenchMate's reliability in maintaining the integrity of test results, this combination is one of the best ways to accurately and fairly measure CPU performance.
PiFast itself focuses on calculating the value of π (pi) to millions of digits using high-precision mathematical algorithms. This process heavily emphasizes the processor's ability to handle single-core computational loads, making it an important benchmark for real-world applications such as lightweight software, games, and single-threaded tasks.
When run through BenchMate, all system aspects are rigorously tested and monitored to ensure no speed or runtime manipulation. BenchMate also automatically records temperature, clock speed, and system stability during the benchmark, making the results more transparent and trustworthy—crucial in competitive environments like overclocking.
Advantages of PiFast with BenchMate:
- Accurately measures single-thread CPU performance.
- Results integrity is maintained through strict validation by BenchMate.
- Suitable for overclocking competitions and stable system performance testing.
- Compatible with various modern Windows operating systems.
- Enables quick retesting due to its short execution time.
This benchmark is still widely used in the hardware community due to its reliability. Despite its simplicity, PiFast with BenchMate remains relevant as a basic performance measurement tool that clearly demonstrates CPU efficiency and can be independently validated.
Released in 2012 as part of the Brazos 2.0 family, the AMD E1-1200 is a power-efficient processor aimed at entry-level laptops. It has a 2 core and 2 thread configuration with a fixed clock speed of 1.4 GHz, with no support for Turbo Core technology. Built with a 40nm fabrication process, the E1-1200 has a TDP value of 18 watts-efficient enough for portable devices that emphasize low power consumption and longer battery life. Despite its limited performance, the E1-1200 was a popular choice in its day thanks to its affordable price and ability to handle light computing needs.
One of the main advantages of the AMD E1-1200 is the integrated Radeon HD 7310 GPU, which offers better graphics performance than Intel's entry-level graphics solutions at the time. This GPU has the ability to play HD resolution videos smoothly, as well as run light games such as Counter Strike 1.6, Plants vs Zombies, or other casual games with minimum graphics settings. That said, this combination of CPU and GPU is not intended for heavy-duty work such as video editing, 3D rendering, or modern gaming. Overall performance is more optimal when used for tasks such as browsing, streaming videos, accessing social media, typing documents, as well as basic office applications.
However, it should be noted that the AMD E1-1200 is less suitable for heavy multitasking, especially in modern operating systems like Windows 10. With a low clock speed and no Boost feature, users may experience lag or limitations when opening multiple applications at once. In tests using the HP 1000 1b05au laptop, this processor was paired with 4GB DDR3 single channel RAM (2 DIMM slots) and tested on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 operating systems. The results show that the most optimal performance is achieved on Windows 7 or Windows 8, while in Windows 10 the system tends to be slow although it can still be used for basic needs. As such, the AMD E1-1200 can still be relied upon as a power-efficient and inexpensive solution for users with very light computing needs.
