Testing

Sisoft Sandra 2009, Cpu Multimedia:

This test shows how the cpu handles multimedia instructions, here we can see that the Phenom 2 actually has caught up in speed a bit compared vs the 920.

Sisoft Sandra 2009, Multi Core:

This test shows which processor handles the cores best, once again the Phenom is way behind the 920. Question is though, do you want to pay 200$ for the Phenom or over 300 for the Core i7? 

 Pcmark Vantage:

Looking at Pcmark Vantage, we chose the Score , Memory and Gaming benchmarks to show you guys. Here we can see that the Phenom 2 is behind but not as much as in the last test so it performs better in some enviorments than others.
