| End user tests 2.4ghz Conroe vs Athlon 64 @ 2.8Ghz Now, for the very first time, someone actually got hold of a Conroe chip in their own lab and did some tests. It was a 2.4GHZ Conroe (Link: CPU-Z) against an Athlon 64 overclocked to 2.8GHZ. The overclocked Athlon 64 had a 2.8/2.4 -1 = 16.7% clockspeed advantage. The following results were obtained by running 32 bit ScienceMark binaries optimized for Intel Pentium

| some very interesting results here Quote:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=829 Cinebench 9.5: Conroe 2.4ghz 738 X2 @2.4ghz: 669 X2 @2.6ghz: 727 WinRAR 3.6: Conroe 2.4ghz: 1120 X2 @2.4ghz: 1168 X2 @2.6ghz: 1253 About ScienceMark, I haven't the unofficial binaries used lately by VW. So, with the official ScienceMark 2.0, this is the comparation: Conroe 2.4ghz: 1308.9 X2 @2.4ghz: 1322.99 While Conroe isn't out yet, the numbers shown at IDF do seem to favor Conroe a lot more than these end user benchmarks are showing... not quite the AMD killer in the end?
