First results using the new Super Chicken Soup are in and

My Intel T2300 on its old soup took 13,532.16 seconds for a 54.28 credit WU.
Its just done another 54.28 credit WU with the new soup in an amazing 8,757.44 seconds :shock:

Lets hope it keeps this sort of performance increase for other WUs

Looks good! I will throw this on my chip and check it out as i would think a Q6600 has SSE3 (I hope).

And horrah for 64-bit!! :D

***Edit***
If you have the Q6600 you can get the next version above SSE3 to use. Go for the SSSE3 option to get those extra cycles

Will give it a go on x32 in a few days, some important wu's to finish first!

Would I need to uninstall the old soup first? or will it install over the top of it?

Yep, my P4D's said the same but they are SSE3 :thumbup:

For anyone not too sure if they have SSE3 capable machines, download CPUID and if it says SSE3 in the Instructions, then you have

Done that! Yes, I'm a SSE3 peep!

a word of caution though
its best to report any completed WUs before installing,
