Performance is still low as compared with intel core i7 980X
Abstract: Recently we have begun to publish a series of reviews with the results of a comprehensive test of modern CPUs we did in our test labs. Right now you can read two articles on that topic: CPU Benchmark, Part 1: Value Processors CPU Benchmark, Part 2: Mai...
Abstract: Dealing with current news means that we rarely have the opportunity to review old products and of course a comparison between the most recent products and those that came out several years ago can get a little problematic. But we’ve decided to push th...
Stable performance, Overclockes well, No heat issues
Price
This CPU is sure a step forward when it comes to AMD CPU's the main problem is that Intel is still way ahead of AMD with their faster versions of theCorei5 and i7 cpu's. Looking at todays prices we can see that the Core i7 930 cpu cost about 10$ more ...
Abstract: Unless you've been living in a cave (and, as Jon Stewart would say, by doing that you "made the soundest real-estate investment possible") , you've surely heard of some good ol' AMD CPU's like Athlon, Duron and - Phenom. Well, what we've got here ...

AMD's first-ever six-core desktop CPU beats all of the company's other offerings, but are its advantages strong enough to justify an upgrade? You decide. ...
In terms of performance, the 1090T, as expected falls by the wayside when compared to the Intel 980X CPU. The Core i7-980X is priced at $999, making it in a completely different price class when comparing the two. The Intel CPU also has higher subsyste...
sI have to say, I have mixed feelings about the new Phenom II X6 processors. On one hand, it’s nice to see AMD step up to a new price range and actually compete (Intel probably holds a permanent position at $1000, but perhaps the $550-600 i7 9xx are an...
Six physical cores, Lots of computing power in multithreaded applications, Turbo Core implementation, Compatibility with older chipsets, Low operating temperatures, Overclocking potential
Price somewhat higher than Core i7 860, Not the best choice for hardcore gamers, Massive increase in power consumption and heat output when overclocking
Without any doubt, Phenom II X6 1090T is the best thing AMD can offer based on their current K10.5 architecture. It is my belief that it will be very hard to squeeze even more out of it before the new Bulldozer architecture comes out. Six phsical cores...
Abstract: Phenom II Plus 2 The Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition is just the latest chip to spring from AMD’s K10 architecture. Like with Intel’s foray into six-core processors, there’s not much architecturally new here. AMD stuck with its 45nm SOI (silicon-on-ins...
First of all it’s important to acknowledge the fact that the Thuban overclocking results in this article are preliminary and possibly not conform what you will reach at home, be it either in a positive or a negative sense. From the Deneb C3 launch we h...
