YACOB - Yet Another CPU Overclocking Benchmark

[Organized]

Hey guys!

 

I'm pretty new to overclocking, but as soon as I started to overclock my system, I thought that there are not many nice tools to benchmark your cpu.

 

As a student (I'm studying computer sciences) I have some time to work on my own projects and that's why I developed my own CPU benchmark. YACOB. Pronounced like the name "Jacob".

 

It's an assembly of different open-source tools, 7zip, Blender and ffmpeg. All these tools will put a lot of stress onto your cpu, which makes them excellent  to use them as a benchmark.

 

 

YACOB has a built-in comparison, so you can see instantly how much performance you gained between the benchmarks.

 

 

If you are interested, you can have a look on YACOBs website: https://yacob.sourceforge.io/

 

I would appreciate all kinds of critics and your opinion on what I made!

 

Greets,

Andy

 

P.S.: I did not register in this forums to just tell you about YACOB! But until now, there just was not enough reason for me to participate on here
