Is AMD Phenom 2 good?

Is AMD Phenom 2 good?

It’s still very much usable. It won’t give all the power of newer processors, but for gaming it is pretty good. As far as GPU goes, don’t get the “latest and greatest”. Get an older Nvidia 10xx or even 16xx or the AMD equivalent.

Is AMD Phenom II good for gaming?

Splendid. For games that tend to cover a *very* wide range of audience, they usually deal (to this day) really well with Phenom II and Core 2 CPUs. If you try anything newer that is compiled to make good use of AVX, the Phenom II (and Core 2 as well) will drop the ball hard.

Is AMD Phenom II X6 1100T good for gaming?

Gaming Performance Despite the apparent lack of multi-threading support, the Phenom II X6 processors, particularly the 1100T, provided tangible gains over the Phenom II X4 965. Far Cry 2 is among the better examples of a game optimized for multi-core processors.

Is AMD Phenom better than Athlon?

the phenom definetly has a perfomance increase over the athlon, the athlon is more of their budget chip now, for more casual computing, the phenom is the performance chip and would be better for gaming if you want a gaming chip.

How old is the AMD Phenom 2?

The first Phenoms were released in November 2007. An improved second generation was released in December 2008, named Phenom II. Processors with an “e” following the model number (e.g., 910e) are low-power models, typically 45 W for Athlons, 65 W for Phenoms.

Does AMD Phenom II have integrated graphics?

Is the Phenom II X6 1075t hex-core?

This is a review of the new hex-core Phenom II x6 1075T. Don’t forget to check out splat’s review of the Phenom II x2 560 BE after you read this one!

Will the AMD stock cooler be in the 1075t box?

The stock cooler was the same for the Phenom II x4 965 BE & x6 1090T, so it will likely make its way in the 1075T box too. For reference, here is a Black Edition box next to a non-Black Edition box. One thing is for sure, the AMD stock cooler of recent years is a fair bit better than the non-extreme edition Intel stock cooler.

How does the i5-1075t compare to the 1090t?

As expected, the 1075T played a very close second fiddle to the 1090T in all of the CPU benches. The big surprise here is the AES test, where the i5 655K just eclipsed every other competitor. According to Everest, AES is an “integer benchmark [that] measures CPU performance using AES (a.k.a. Rijndael) data encryption.”

Is the i7 1075t better than the i7 870?

In overall score, the i7 870 rules the roost with the 1075T coming in second. This is a surprise considering its CPU score was bested by the 1075T and the 1090T with the latter just barely edging out the 1075T. Surprisingly, it seems bus speed (which includes an increase in HT & NB clocks) has little to do with the outcome of the CPU test.
