Performance is still low as compared with intel core i7 980X
Ever since Intel launched their Core i7 (and later Core i5) CPUs, AMD have been left needing to compete on pricing and the like rather than outright performance - Hardly an unsurprising state of affairs given Intel's traditional dominance of top-notch...
1090T and 1055T are the first real hexa-cores which is in reach of 99% enthusiasts, since Intel’s 980X retails for around 1000$(more than Rs. 55000 in Indian retail market), though if you are looking at purely performance numbers then I am sure 980X ha...
AMDThe big question about the Phenom II X6 is relevance - where does it make sense? With current Phenom II's topping out at 3.4GHz, the Phenom II X6 doesn't seem to move the game on significantly - at least at first glance. 50% more cores, similar clo...
AMD has really done it again. They’ve brought us the best mix of features and performance and provided them to us at the best possible price. Never would I ever had thought that we could get to a 6-core CPU for $209.99 US (for the 1055T). The 1090T i...
Abstract: Not so long after Intel presented their new six-core model Core i7 980GX, taking the throne of the currently fastest desktop CPU, AMD presented us with their own solution - Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition. In parallel with the unveiling of this CPU, c...
To preface this page, I'd like to reiterate the fact that due to complications with our motherboard, we were unable to perform power consumption tests, or push the CPU higher with overclocking. We're still investigating the reasons for various issues ...
Abstract: AMD just opened a new era - affordable sixcore CPUs for everyone. Whereas Intel keeps the overall performance crown (in fact, also stays king of the hill in most individual benchmarks), they also command a hefty price premium. Whereas, when you look at bang for the buck or the fastest cpu in..
Without a doubt, AMD Phenom II X6 1090T performs adequately to its price and will be in demand. Positioning on a par with Intel Core i7-930 is completely justified. However, judging by specifications, we believe this CPU can demonstrate better results...
No, the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T is not to be the fastest desktop processor money can buy. That title still belongs to the Intel Core i7-980X, but then again this Extreme processor also carries an equally extreme price tag. What the latest silicon from A...
AMD have shown real mastery with this Phenom II X6, succeeding where many were expecting failure. Very few commentators would have bet that AMD could bring out a 6-core processor within the same thermal envelope as a 4-core without lowering the clock n...
