AMD Phenom II 920 & 940 Full Review

[Tiridum]

I only care about the winrar and gaming tests since the synthetic benchmarks are completely useless to me, and what amused me was how at 1280*1024 the i7 pwns but at 1680*1050 they choke and PhenomII/Q9550 take the lead.. I mean, who gonna spend a load of money on a i7 platform and game at 1280*1024??

yeah that was quite funny, but it is prolly because of the HT
thats a big disandvantage of HT, in some scenarios it rocks, in others not, but you cannot simply switch it on or off depending on the task you are doing at the moment, so you always have a tradeback
