Super PI is a single threaded benchmark that calculates pi to a specific number of digits. It uses the Gauss-Legendre algorithm and is a Windows port of a program used by Yasumasa Kanada in 1995 to compute pi to 232 digits.
So with that said I thought we might as well do a little test and see who can complete the 1M the fastest.

WARNING:This can cause harm to your computer, but in the very unlikely case that something happens to your computer because of running this program we are not responsible in any way. Run at your own risk.

Instrutions:
1. Download Super Pi 1.8 from here.

2. Run Super PI and do the following.

Click Calculate.


Select 1M


Then run.

3. Take a screen shot with your results and post it here.

Pi is gay
Pie is better

So its just like you?

What does this even do?

Darth, I agree & +1.

I am good and pretty much a genius at most Mathematical questions. Although this doesn't seem to awake my brain.

I don't understand it at all. I'm not even going to bother trying to.

Damn it [space] if I want to figure out a certain digit in pi then I would be a mathematician in some fancy college

It's a program that tests how fast just 1 core of your PC can calculate a certain amount of digits of Pi.
It's not a math problem for you to solve.
So yea.
I get about 22 sec's when overclocked to 3.75ghz.

Any harms other than you've stated? It looks to use a command line. I wouldn't trust to run it on my PC. I know what commands can do and I've used a lot of them against noobs on PCs.

Where did you see a command line?
What I meant by harm was hardware not software.
It won't harm anything though.
It couldn't even destablise my PC yesterday when I was on a very unstable OC.
If you want something that can harm your computer's hardware get Prime95 or LinX, that gets your stuff hot, those are what you use when overclocking to make sure their stuff is stable. I did an hour of it last night and my PC hit 52C.
So yea, this won't do much.


Also added a screenshot for when it finishes in the OP.

Question is will my computer run it?

Yea.
It should run it fine.
