Strictly speaking, the launch of the new Deneb processor stepping can hardly be considered a milestone event. As our tests showed, the new C3 stepping brought minor changes to the Phenom II X4 processors. Among them are: slight reduction in the power c...

Abstract: Some folks scoffed when AMD elected to introduce the Phenom II X4 965 processor back in August with a 140W thermal design power (TDP), because that pushed beyond AMD's customary peak of 125W for desktop processors. The move wasn't without precedent, bu...
Abstract: Phenom II Gets a New Revision: 125W AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Performance PreviewIt’s been 2.5 months since we first looked at AMD's flagship 3.4GHz Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition CPU. Back then, we suggested you wait until September to...
With the new 965 Black Edition, AMD wants to close the gap on Intel. While the performance is ok as expected, the power consumption is off the charts. For some reason AMD decided to bump the VCore 1.4000V which, in our opinion, is an unnecessary preca...

When I was sent the refresh of the Phenom II X4 965 processor, I was expecting only to see thermal differences, however, I was quickly mistaken. The processor, as a whole - including the performance, was improved, not to mention the overclocking abili...

Abstract: AMD recently had the honour of claiming the “fastest” desktop quad-core CPU available on the market with the release of the Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition processor. While this creative piece of marketing only refers to the clock speed of the CPU (whi...
Der Phenom X4 ist etwas schneller als sein Vorgänger und liegt (nicht übertaktet) zwischen dem Q9550 und dem Q9650 – sowohl vom Preis als auch der Leistung her....
