Compared to AMD’s first quad-core processor, the Phenom, its Phenom II successor offers great improvements, particularly in the area of energy consumption. With all due respect to Intel and the performance milestones it has achieved, the Phenom II o...
Before summarizing the benchmark results, we have to consider a few things: Pricing (as of January 7th, 2009) The Phenom X4 9950 is now priced significantly lower - about $170 from web shops The QX9650 is $1030, and the Q9650 is $550 (The QX is unlock...
It would be wishful thinking to believe that the Phenom II X4 processors were ever going to give the Core i7’s a run for their money, at least in terms of performance. For starters AMD are pitching the Phenom II X4 940 for just $275 US, while the 920 v...
In conclusion, AMD have created a worthy successor for the Phenom processor that continues with backward compatibility and finally breaks the 3Ghz barrier and offers users a truly sturdy cooling system with the Cool N Quiet technology. The movie from...
With a name like Phenom II we were kind of hoping to see something major in change from what AMD calls its improvements to the K10 architecture. Now, we aren’t scoffing at the increase in L3 cache from 2MB to 6MB, or the new fabrication process, but...

Abstract: NameAlmost a year to the day after Intel made the move from a 65nm manufacturing process to 45nm – allowing it to pack more transistors into a piece of silicon and thus ramp up clock speeds – AMD finally joins in the fun. For AMD it's the same old story o...
I must say that I was surprised and impressed by the performance of AMD’s latest Phenom II CPU. Theyve played second fiddle to Intel ever since Core 2 was launched and now, suddenly, theyre competing with the Core i7 at similar price levels. Thats t...
Pareciera que con esto AMD por fin logra sacarse encima algo del Karma que cargaba desde que Intel lanzó sus procesadores Core 2 Duo. Aunque todavía no alcanza el rendimiento de los nuevos Core i7 (lo que significa finalmente que los que quieran...

Para ser un modelo Platinum esperábamos más rango de voltaje para el OC
