AMD Phenom II X6 1075T

Cinebench, PovRay, PC Mark & Passmark

Cinebench R11.5

The latest iteration of Cinebench's rendering benchmark takes greater advantage of multiple cores. With this in mind, what better way to test a processor with no less than six cores?

For reference, the stock frequency scores of the 1075T and 1090T place themselves roughly in the ball park of Core i7 860/930 processors. This is most certainly the anticipated performance level given its price tag, although a heavy overclock makes a significant difference.

PovRay

Persistence Of Vision RAYtracer is an application for creating three dimensional graphics. Within the program is a very popular benchmark that measures the processor's ability to render such images.

A similar picture is painted for PovRay.

PCMark Vantage

PCMark Vantage is Futuremark's flagship "System Wide" benchmark. With a large focus on day to day operations, it's an excellent means of judging the capability of a computer as a whole.

Again, the achieved PC Mark Vantage scores are very much in line for systems of this calibre.

Passmark paints a picture about the system as a whole by testing processor, memory, hard disk drive, optical drive and graphics card.

Passmark offers a similar point of view, however we remain a little stumped by the low 3D Graphics value generated by the overclocked Phenom II. Regardless, it still came out on top overall.

What's that, another fully unlocked hex core? We simply had to take a look at this...

Great review as always guys. What cooler did you use for this, and what were the temperatures like?

I was talking to Mul about this the other night, was the classic is it really that cool? AMD style chip. Load was mid 40's on a SilenX cooler youll be seeing reviewed soon.

Same old Phenom, it has to be overclocked to its max so it can compete with default core i7’s when are AMD going to come up with something that has a triple channel controller and can give you the huge memory bandwidth that the core i7’s have otherwise AMD are just wasting their time and will remain the underdog of the cpu market.

They remain relatively competative in a more budget concious world. For example a consumer wanting decent bandwidth for their PCIe interfaces, and a reasonable performance is probably going to go for a 1055/1075T, a CHIV, for about £320-340. A decent i7 board is going to run £200+, plus an i7 950 which is £220 ish.

I agree that they desperately need to update the K10 architecture (I'm pretty sure Helen of Troy had one). But for massively multithreaded programs, the AMD is still a smart buy.

*WTF!This is not a BE cpu!*

black edition it means it has a unlocked multi for easyer overclocking
