| AMD's Phenom Processor - Beyond Erratum 298 | |
|
(Author: Michael Schuette, January 1, 2008) |
Caligari TrueSpace
TrueSpace is probably the best application out there to measure multiprocessor performance. Also, there is only a limited impact of the cache since most of the data are non-recurrent.
Vases
Adam Trachtenberg's model was rendered at 1024 x 768 with raytracing enabled and 2 x AA. The screenshot shows the leapfrogging scan lines in the case of Intel's V8 system using 8 processors.
Render Time
Render time in seconds, lower is better. The Phenom procesors are flanking Intel's Quad Extreme 6700 but fall behind the 6850 or Yorkfield offerings. Bear in mind, though that the latter are not due out in the market until March 2008.
Power Consumption per Renderpass
Rendertime multiplied with the power consumption measured during the rendering. The result shows the energy efficiency for 3D rendering under full utilization of all CPU resources. Lower is better. The Phenom 9600 can run with the best in terms of power efficiency, the 9900 falls slightly behind but still delivers decent efficiency.
