Hm, very competitive scores! At the same frequencies ...
Strange that memory seems so weak on phenom?
What's interesting is the "gaming" score. Any reason for this?
It was 128-bit mode ... This is setting before test ...

OBR thanks for the results,but couldn't you get a cas4 DDR2 ram?Today ,you can even get cheap cas4 DDR2-800 1GB modules.
As for mem. tests ,Phenom should have better mem. scores than AthlonX2.Don't know if it is BIOS setting,but your scores seem a bit low.
so its scores better then a C2D paired with a much more heavier GFX?:D
Pwned :D
Everybody knows Nvidia Vista drivers are crap. I'd also like to see same graphics card used for both tests at same resolutions, and same OS environment, 32bit or 64bit.
Yep and intel's "new gen" products really pwn Conroe/kentsfield ,by a whole ~6% or so on average.
I like it. The offering may not be on top of Intel, but it will offer alternatives of OEM computer companies and hopefully driving some competition into the market with the Phenom/790FX platform.
Also, first post :)
:welcome:
looks like its gunna be sweet!
its a little faster then the Q6600. works for me:yepp:
Before NDA ends i can tell this: At the same frequencies are Phenom X4 and Kensfield (Yorkfield is better anyway) very close, and performance is almost the same ... BUT, Phenoms cant to overclock so easily like Kensfield ... that a problem. My max stable Phenom is about 3GHz ... and Kensfield 3.6GHz and more ...
Don't know how score the hd3870 on pcmark vantage...But you're right I've missed that it was a traditionnal AMD biased comparison... Compare a cpu with the same price, and the same number of core that a quad to a duo... :shrug:
But at least orb give us a clear information:"At the same frequencies are Phenom X4 and Kensfield (Yorkfield is better anyway) very close, and performance is almost the same"
for people who do not overclock, yorkfield will be better, so AMD loses here
for people who do oc, yorkfield is better and even kentsfield.
rough times for AMD...
I dont really seeing a point in going for this chip since Q6600 can overclock 1ghz and will be out performing it. If you plan to run stock thats a different story though
Pgi 7.1 :d
well lets say, he claimed certain things, without delivering any proof till now. ;)
search XS news, and the overdrive tool ;)
And he call others for trolls...
So lets see:
1. Barcelona in MASSIVE stock.
2. Some "chinese site" showing Phenom is over 5% faster than Core 2.
3. A 3.3Ghz Phenom on stock voltage. (Did they raise that to 1.7V or so?)
Anyway, we are waiting for some links and documentation as usual.
He seems to have memory problems.
Dont know if is bios/board/CPU or ram problem.
maybe an disguised AMD marketing manager :D

i hope the 9400 can do this :up:
Well, after all the hype, I honestly expected Phenom to be
1) At least equal to Kentsfield clock for clock
2) Be able to launch higher than 2.4GHz
Did I have unrealistic expectations?
Perhaps Rahul Sood didn't help with his comments of a 3GHz Phenom being a 'stone cold killer' of Kentsfield... :rolleyes: :shakes:
Wow intel boys to lazy to do some search :D
All the info is right here on these forums just put of those special glasses :ROTF:
look at this thread for instance
Phenom totally destroys an Q6600 with GTX, with a budget gfx cards and same cpu clock in the game test -->5000 vs 4700
Ylike said put of those glasses...
troll = shintaisme?
nah not my cup of tea :D
and read my edit, that's what i call pwned!

Now looking back to the startpost and it's gaming score
SURPRISE!!!5077 with an HD3870,
you fail to read and to understand it seems :D
I beg to differ, your screenshot shows "Ganged mode disabled", i.e. unganged mode enabled and that means 2x64bit not 1x128. Explanation is here:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=343
However that should be the best option for K10, I dont care if some bandwidth benches will suffer from decreasing scores, overall performance in a multithreaded environment should be better with unganged mode.
cheers
Opteron
BeardyMan, how about we wait for some REAL game benches before calling Kentsfield... 'pwned' in gaming. You know, real games... like Crysis. :ROTF:
I have a sneaking suspicion, come the 19th... the only one getting 'pwned' will be yourself. :rofl:
Why don't we all simply ignore beardyman... he's obviously a relative of Sharikou.
If we all ignore what he says...he wouldn't have anything to say now would he?
Not too lazy... just wowed... the burden of proof is on you.
Phenom slower clock for clock...
http://www.xcpus.com/forums/cpus-mai...ce-crysis.html
Phenom slower than a FSB crippled Q6700:
http://www.ocworkbench.com/2007/giga...0FX-DQ6/b1.htm
Phenom does not overclock well:
http://my.ocworkbench.com/bbs/showth...threadid=68863
This in fairly good agreement with such reviews as:
http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles...?cid=2&id=2411
http://www.techreport.com/articles.x/13224
and of course Anands predictions: http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets...oc.aspx?i=3092
I just go a Q6600 for $234.00 Yesterday.. That's VALUE...
AMD has released so much information, this is about what we have. I don't necessarily disagree though, it is scant... but all the indicators, from Anands preivew to Techreport's runs, to the OCWorkbench data point in the same direction... clock for clock Phenom will come up short to the 65 nm Kentsfield and won't be competitive to Yorksfield.
Of course, we will be treated to canned benchmark data on launch day anyway.... if rumors hold.
i'm not quite sure what to think about the memory performance we've seen in several benchmarks.
barcelona/phenom should be a monster in memory benchmarks, but somehow it's only on par with athlon x2's... makes me wonder what's wrong there :F
Can you run the test again in 64 Bit and IMC gangend mode?
This reminds me of a thread I started about Intel's strategy once phenom drops: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=158609
I think in spite of the lacklustre performance from AMD, Intel could further hurt AMD's release with surprise price-drops in the kentsfield range of products. This should also allow the newly released penryns to sit comfortably above their cousins, price-wise. We might just see $200 quadcores from Intel.
lol now i get it what BeardyMan means.... that PCMark Vantage score... uh yeah makes real sense that a 3870 is faster then a gtx... :rolleyes:
I'd rather say it means that Phenom @default 2.4GHz + HD3875 is faster than Q6600 @ 2.4GHz + gfx
Link to the amd overdrive screen with one core over 3.3ghz
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...ight=overdrive
yeah i also can get my c2d screenshot stable on 3.8ghz (on air). Doesn't mean it acutally is stable.
Well..here is alittle surprise!
Gaming test.
Part 1 is one of the 3Dmark06 scenes.
Part 2 is a HD ONLY test with no GFX or CPU load!
And those 2 gives the result. So I´m sure you could also make a 8600GTS beat a 8800Ultra with a good raid setup.
It really doesn't matter since the 1st post and second post in this thread had comparable HDD test scores .And you can see in fact that Q6600 had a little better results in some other tests: memory score (lol?) ,TV and Movies Suite(8800GTX at play probably),music score (better sound card probably) ,Communications score, even in HDD test suit...
And still both had almost equal total score which tells us that Phenom+Radeon got more at gaming.
Please go study the scores for once. If you even would note the HDD suite bench is also CPU taxed.
HDD 1
HDD - Windows Defender
HDD 2
HDD - gaming
HDD 3
HDD - importing pictures to Windows Photo Gallery
HDD 4
HDD - Windows Vista startup
HDD 5
HDD - video editing using Windows Movie Maker
HDD 6
HDD - Windows Media Center
HDD 7
HDD - adding music to Windows Media Player
HDD 8
HDD - application loading
Sorry to bust your dream. But they aint raw HD tests.
All i can see is that both systems had comparable HDD test scores(total score for HDD suit).Apart from the fact that this test depends a lot on other hardware in your system,it shows us a rough comparison of two platforms.
Well, the thing is even on a forum like ours, you have people who would be content with their quadcore systems running at 1.6 Ghz. For those people, price is all that matters. Plus, they'll be told they have more power than they'll actually ever need :). So, while Intel may not compete with these quadcores, it has to find a way to chop off some of the profit from AMDs higher clocked cpus. Yes, for Intel it will be the lower end, but by virtue of the fact that penryn is here, the best scenario for Intel is to let the Kents muddy the waters at the lower mainstream market, while lower clocked penryns would become entry level highend.
well mister smart, can you tell me then where i will be able to buy 2,2 -2,4GHZ yorkfield quad @200-250$
a link to an etailer is enough :rofl:
20posts in one thread from shintai again as usual.... its an AMD thread...get a life, looking at you're sig you can only dream of a decent hw setup. Look at you're board it's a 965 chipset INTEL screwed YOU BIGTIME with that chipset.
look around in the buying forums and check the amount of q6600 that are bought against others high speed bins.... AMD is a direct competitor now for those.
its not only the proc, people look power, powerconsumption and total price, you also need a board. Total offering is much higher now with fx790 boards.
only few % will OC, 50% of those few % use AI of board or small tools, the new overdrive will do great to that community.
Situation about AMD CPUs are exactly the same like on GFX market ... no absolutely high-end, only mainstream with good price ... thats all.
can we make a decree that from now on, cinebench 10 will be the official cpu bench for everyone? all these other programs piss me off lol. 3dmark06 cpu test is influenced by graphics card, and graphics card driver version, so thats out. pcmark is influenced by hardrive. cinebench is just pure unadulterated cpu and memory bandwith bench afaik
is this the new bench that takes 2 hours to finish or something? :stick:
