AMD Phenom II 920 & 940 Full Review [UPDATED with more tests]

[informal]

10percent?
where?

Here :
Phenom 940 should score 18.6*1.07=~19.02 which is 9% lower than score in the test(19.02/18.21).
Also i940 scores the same as 920 with and without Turbo mode,in second image/chart which is kinda odd.Turbo scores are different than the ones without it so we know CPU is the bottleneck here(as the scores change with the CPU clock when Turbo kicks in).One explanation could be that Turbo adds more speed bins on 920 model but the scores are practically identical,so i guess it could be an error with data input(when you created the charts).Also the OFF and ON bars are misplaced as "Turbo moded" 940 is slower than a i7 920 with Turbo off ,so it must be a typo when you created the charts.

first of all,lets forget about "should"

no the results are correct
its just the delta that i said before or these are gpu bottlenecked

its just odd that turbo lowers the performance in some benchs. but the thread isn't even about i7's performance so i wouldn't dwell on it.

Well the 2.8Ghz Phenom II model is scoring 2% better than a 3Ghz Phenom II,so with 7% lower clock.There's your 9% delta,a double of 4-5% margin of error

But i don't doubt your tests if you were implying that.I just see inconsistency in some phenom and core i7 scores,which could be an error not related to test but to results presentation/creation.

just saw the screenshots from these tests and they are correct.maybe the problem is on the progy.

But a friend that saw the results said that its normal
