Dad's new laptop.
Pretty good for a laptop. A dual core laptop, achieving 80% the performance of my desktop quad (though my quad is like first generation).

Wonder if 64 bit x264 would help speed things up?

Maybe - but there's no point because if wee're all using different builds wee're gonna get incomparable results.
Not sure if you should be 8th or 9th - your second pass is lower than squees one but your first pass is higher.
I'll keep you in 8th for now.

What the hell the software is 581mb !! just for a benchmark! app, I'd rather list my computer parts than download this!
CPU: core i7 860
MB: Gigabyte P55A-UD3P
GPU: ATI RADEON HD 5850

Around 10% speed up, which is actually quite significant.
BUT, you'll have to either....
1. Directly input into x264 (get a version built with ffms2 input).
2. Decode and pipe to x264 with some other decoder (eg. Mplayer, ffmpeg).
Or if you need/want to use avisynth (for filtering or whatever other reasons)...
3. Use a 64bit avisynth, of which there currently is only some unofficial builds which are buggy as hell.
4. Use normal avisynth, and pipe it to x264 with something like avs2yuv.

Yeah. Worth looking into if you do a lot of encoding at home though.

9th. Second pass is more important, since more time is spent on that than the first pass, and it's the pass that actually encodes stuff. For quad cores, 1st pass doesn't even use up 100% CPU (thus not a good benchmark).
Actually, it would be best to calculate some harmonic mean and rank based on that, but I don't think anyone could be stuffed doing that.

x264 keeps crashing in like every other app :/ can't use x264 with handbrake, anything I can do? Just got a new laptop and installed Windows 7 64 bit.

1. Also use a 64bit avisynth, of which there currently is only some unofficial experimental builds which are buggy as hell.
2. Decode and pipe to x264 with some other 64bit decoder (eg. Mplayer, ffmpeg).

Never used Handbrake before, so I have no idea how that works internally. You can try asking Zinga, who if I remember correctly, uses Handbrake.
That being said, unless your frontend is specifically designed to use 64bit x264, then most likely it won't work if you just simply replace the x264 binary with a 64bit version.

Here's my new laptop's 3DMark06 score! I am proud of the little trooper :P
