This thing is amazing. got it oc to 4.0 ghz on air cooling
Regardless of the oc, its still a fairly mediocre cpu.
I don't consider lower framerates in games a bench. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/cpus/2010/12/07/amd-phenom-ii-x6-1100t-review/6
I have to agree: the X6 is no crappy CPU. Yeah, it's definitely not as efficient core-for-core as any Nehalem or Sandy Bridge CPU, but I'm sure it still gets the job done. It's not what I would call "slow," lol.i5 performance, but for less, and it's still mediocre?
You are comparing games that are only programmed to use up to 2 cores. When an Intel i processors are faster clock for clock, of course it will be faster
Just have a little gander:
