Triple Core Phenom 8600 Benchmarked
-
I sure hope these are dirt cheap!
-
iv been saying this for a while, but i think wolfdale and toliman are gonna be in fierce competition.
edit: 5331 cinebench score? :banana::banana::banana::banana: thats low, i gotta retract my statement lol. at this point amd should sell phenom quad cores at intel dual core prices.
-
They will ofc be chepaer then the quad cores but their price i guess will mostly depend on if AMD will raise the price on the 9500 and 9600 when B3 comes.
ANd besides im guessing that the first Triple cores will be a mix of B2s and B3s.
-
They better be a lot cheaper than Wolfdales if that's how it gonna perform. I might bite at around $130. Maybe?
-
I can't read the SPi results, but I'm guessing 1M?
And if that's right, I've seen A64s perform better :shakes:
Best Regards :toast:
-
Uses Patched BIOS. Slower than you need.
-
WOOO! 4ghz Prescott P4 performance!! :rofl:
That better either not be 1M pi, or those chips better be like $50 tops.
-
why would somebody bench a tripple core cpu using superpi? :stick:
-
To show the miserable single-treaded performance? Was hoping for a wPrime result, that would have been more useful. I simulated a tri-core Yorkfield at 2298MHz and it slapped those Toliman results in the face. I hope the huge performance delta was due to the TLB patch.

Here here. My FX-53 does that in 1M. Is that 32M then?

No, my 3800@3.07 does 28 sec. I think AMD cpu's just arent optimised for the superpi benchmark. Its better to focus on game and synthetic performance.
-
my p4 550J @ 3700 did 27 sec...lol
-
wonder why they enabled the tlb to show results... or at least, show both, tlb and non tlb bios. These dont really yield any useful data, as by the time it is released it will be b3, and any pre b3 will be owned by people who will risk not using tlb...

Oh man, now that just looks terrible. Need 3GHz Phenom/Toliman ASAP.

You mean 4GHz :rofl:
-
I might pick up one of these, if there cheap then definitely build a cheap rig around it, seems OC'd be ok for gaming + its pretty good for mulit-tasking so pretty good if they price it right imo

No worries, with the Q6600 dropping to 229, and the Q9300 coming in at 260... AMD cannot charge much over 200 for their top quad, and from the looks of it ... a good portion of the Wolfdale's will beat this CPU just in raw performance ... so expect triple-cores between the 100-150 range, that would be my guess.
-
Did anyone expect any different? It is just Phenom X4 with one less core after all, same architecture otherwise basically :shrug:

exactly.......

these better go for $119.99 w/ ECS mobo @ Fry's
and the mobo better sell for $40 on eBay

Nahhhhh, Gateway and HP will suck these up nobody's business, then sell them front and center at Best Buy to the common sucker er.. I mean common consumer.
-
Whats the power consumption of these?
Will my PC draw 2x more than 2core wolfdale?
-
what about 2k6 cpu score?
in games i guess there is no difference whatsoever to dualcores.
which makes me wonder... why should people buy a tripple core?
in games a dualcore is enough, and if you use apps that DO use more than 2 cores, you want a quadcore and not tripple core... lol :D
