| AMD Athlon64-X2-3800+ The Mancunian Candidate | |
|
(Review by MS September 20, 2005) |
| AMD Athlon 64 3800+ (Venice) |
Caligari TrueSpace
Just when we thought this workload might become obsolete, it got a second life since it turned out to be one of the most reliable applications with respect to showing multithreading and SMP advantages regardless of the system configuration -- something we cannot claim for many of the other applications used.
Even though the X2-3800+ does not make the top three, it comes in at an incredibly respectable placement.
Also the power consumption is - to no big surprise after looking at the other measurements - exemplary
If we calculate the power per run by multiplying the wattage with the runtime, the X2-3800+ has to yield only to the venice core - which it beats by a substantial margin when it comes to raw runtime
In the final analysis, the X2-3800+ is the undisputed overall winner in this type of application.
