Thread: X4 Phenom

I was discussing a couple of parameters and other factors could influence buying a processor or another, and even I do not have a clear course, is true have performance against amd Intel cpu is remarkable, but there is a need for a vga in order to make the most of the games, not the mobo for AMD, especially in a good board, I was paying to buy another pc and I doubt as worked with me was born amd and the temptation to see the comparison, a INTEL E7200 + Asus boards p5kpl + EVGA 9500 gt 512 mb = 190 Lukas or AMD Phenom x4 black edition AMD + ECS 82000Like I find by the grace of the multi out of the doubt to either buy them from wonder if I can help, thanks and greetings.

Hi

If you use it for is to play, import Sinn processor, video card still has more weight.

The 9500gt is not a great vga, but it is much better than the integrated 8200

with a friend were watching test performance, and we saw core 2 duo is better than the quad that the processor clock is higher, so primary tasks will always have better performance, but when you assign more tasks to the secondary game as processing the anisotropic quad gives a thousand kicks, then assign a core to each task, please review this, my question is whether 3 or 4 cores of a Phenom, with its low L2 cache and L3 cache you gain weight or make it to 2 cores of a core 2 duo with his highest l2 cache, because I believe something price is similar.

Hello

X2 Intel on AMD X4 is not very good for games and seen even my AMD X2 is better than the X4.

I have a Phenom x4 9550 and 0 with drama games, like me are all apart and played, unzip, virus scanning, transferring all the files and see the game and took it, that's an advantage of 4 processors. And another thing, I knew that AMD had superior Intel in the field of games.
Apart AMD form is not a bottleneck between the processor and 4 NB, instead Intel have that problem.
I went to a talk on the AMD Spider Platform where ye here all the information out.

I hope this helps you.

Hello

The Phenom x4 is good but if your thing is to play the core 2 duo takes the best.
