AMD Phenom II X4 940 Review

Testing:

Sisoft Sandra is a diagnostic utility and synthetic benchmarking program. Sandra allows you to view your hardware at a higher level to be more helpful. For this benchmark, I will be running a broad spectrum of tests to gauge the performance of key areas of the motherboards.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Processor Arithmetic

 

Multi-Core Efficiency

 

Memory Bandwidth

 

Memory Latency

Physical Disks

 

Power Management Efficiency

 

Again, the Phenom II X4 940 met or beat the Intel Q9450 and came close to the QX9770, but the i7's took off with their increased bandwidth and speed.
