hello list, |
2 |
|
3 |
after many years without a hardware upgrade, i'll be receiving my new |
4 |
computer next week: intel i7 920 cpu, 6 GB ram, asus p6t mobo. |
5 |
|
6 |
i'm pretty excited, i imagine that at first i'll be shocked at the |
7 |
difference with the ancient machine i'm using now. |
8 |
|
9 |
now my question: searching a bit for the best compilation flags for |
10 |
this processor, i found this at gentoo-wiki: |
11 |
|
12 |
CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" |
13 |
CFLAGS="-march=core2 -msse4 -mcx16 -msahf -O2 -pipe" |
14 |
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" |
15 |
(http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Safe_Cflags/Intel) |
16 |
|
17 |
on the other hand, a thread at http://forums.gentoo.org says that the |
18 |
wiki page is outdated, and that -march=native should do the job without |
19 |
any further tweaks like -msse4 etc. |
20 |
|
21 |
any ideas from the list? |
22 |
|
23 |
best, |
