AMD Phenom II X4 (Deneb) 940 Launch, Review & Overclocking - PAGE 6
William Henning - Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

Sandra CPU

At stock speeds, the Phenom II X4 940 was:

  • slaughtered by the Core i7 920
  • beaten pretty badly by the 3.2GHz Core 2 Quad QX9770
  • slighly beaten for integer results by the 3GHz Phenom 9950, which loses to it for floating point results
  • badly beating up on the stock Phenom X4 9950

Sandra Memory

Very interesting - the Phenom II X4 940 does quite well here:

  • beaten by the triple channel Core i7 results by 57.2%
  • beats the Phenom X4 9950 by about 10%
  • beats the Core 2 Quad QX9770 by 43.3%

Sandra Latency

For latency, the Phenoms were faster than the Core i7 & Quad  stock results.
