If we consider OC, then the 2.3GHz BE is on the bottom on the list of the good/cheap/energy efficient dualcore OC-ers.

AMD needs a 45nm "native"(no disabled cripled cores) dualcore to have a decent OC-er.

It doesn't look bad for an office PC, but a 2.3GHz dualcore in 2H 2008 is a joke.

If 20% is slightly, then a 2Ghz Athlon64 X2 3800+ is slightly behind the 2.3GHz K10.

I doubt this. At 3GHz(with the NB&L3 OC-ed proportionaly ~ 2.2GHz) it should be slower or on pair with the K8 X2 @3.5GHz. Check the Phenom X4/X3 @3GHz benchmarks and compare them to a 3.5GHz K8 X2.


You don't need a hard proof to realize that. We've already seen how Phenom X3/X4 performs compared to Athlon64 X2, so Phenom X2 can only perform same or slower at same clock.

Anyway, if you want a hard proof, the link above in villa1n's post should give you a more clear image.
I don't know if its your vision or math skills,but how did you come up with this is beyond me:

Here is the summary of the scores:

Average from 3 tests show us that per clock Kuma is 1.33% slower than Conroe and that Kuma at 2.4Ghz is ~2.6% faster than 3Ghz K8 X2.
It still is a 2 games + 1 app mini-test,but it shows a trend at least.
