| Athlon 64 FX57 Performance Preview It is clear that the FX doesn't quite have the same luster with the X2 on the scene. AMD is quick to say that gaming performance is best on the FX still, but clearly from our marks the FX57 will not have a significant edge over at least the 4800+, and likely will not overclock much further if at all. The advantage of the dual core remains the ability to raise the clock multiplier. While we still yearn for the days of the K6-2 when we started the site almost seven years ago when a simple jumper change would change the multiplier it seems unlikely that due to remarking, and perhaps somewhat due to overclocking AMD will not unlock mid range or lower CPUs. http://www.amdzone.com/modules.php?o...tid=146&page=1 |
