Further testing

Sisoft Sandra 2009, Cpu Multimedia:

This test shows how the cpu handles multimedia applications in various situations. We can clearly see that the 955 beats both competitors, to bad I don't have a Core2Duo to compare vs but Intel were not interested in a test.

Sisoft Sandra 2009, Multi Core Benchmark:

The higher is better in this test and as we can see the Intel processors cores handle things way better  than the AMD even though its a older version.

Pcmark Vantage:

Pcmark is a well known benchmark program by Futuremark. This software tests your whole computer and shows various results but we choose to pick the Score, Memory and Gaming results to show you even though the other results mirror the same results as we got here.

We can see that the new Phenom is way faster than the others. It beat the others with over 500 points at the total score which is quite a bit. To give you an idea how it performed I can say that the Intel Core i7 965 Extreme gave a total of 9171 total points, but it will cost you 5 times the money to get so this far this has proven to be a excellent contender for the midrange market.
