At 1680 x 1050 the phenom wins in far cry, equals the core i7's in crysis (the phenom 940 is one fps better than the core i7 920 with turbo off), and then loses in WIC. I don't see that as amd taking back the gaming crown and if you want a good bang for you buck set up q9550 looks to be a better choice compared to the phenom 2 940 for gaming. I'm disappointed in the phenom again, after owning a 9850 BE and now to see no real improvement is kinda sad.
Come on! Win or loss where?
On 1680x1050 bench biggest difference is 2fps!!!
