Test: AMD Phenom II X4 975BE

Konklusion

AMD leverer varen her. Denne nye Phenom II CPU har dog kun 200 Mhz mere end sin lillebror 965, og disse 200Mhz har givet en smule mere regnekraft. Dog kan jeg ikke helt se pointen i denne CPU. Da 965 også er en Black Edition CPU, kan man clocke denne op til samme hastighed som denne CPU har uden at skulle være bange for ustabilitet. Jeg har også haft fornøjelsen af at prøve 970, og jeg må ud fra erfaring skrive, at disse 2 nye CPU'er fra AMD clocker helt ens, hvor 4Ghz altså er grænsen. 965 clocker ligeledes sådan. Her er grænsen også ca. 4Ghz.

Innovation/Teknologi - 4
Her vil jeg gerne give samlet for Phenom II teknologien. For denne er altså et vidunder, og som skrevet, så kan 970 clocke det samme som 975 kan. Med det skrevet, så er 975 altså også en CPU AMD kan være stolt af. Med standard clock er den utrolig god, men i overclock kunne man måske godt have forventet lidt mere.

Ydelse - 4
AMD har et utrolig pris/ydelses forhold. Hvis man skal have fat i en INTEL, der kan det samme, så skal man op i et noget højere prisleje. Denne CPU har flere kræfter end hvad en normal bruger skulle få brug for, men den er stadig ikke i liga med INTEL's i7'er.

Pris - 5
Her ligger AMD stadig i spidsen. CPU'en kommer til at koste omkring 1200 kr., hvilket synes at være en utrolig god pris for AMD's bedste Phenom II X4 CPU på gaden.

 UK summary

This new Phenom II 975 only has 200Mhz more than Phenom II 965, which has given it a bit more power, but I am still having a hard time seeing where this fits into the market though. Since 965 is a Black Edition CPU too, and that clocks just as good as the new ones, which is also Black Edition, then why not get 965 and clock that. If you are going to have a Black Edition CPU, chances are that you will be overclocking anyway. Both 975, 970 and 965 has the limit of 4Ghz at least on air cooling.
 

Innovation/Technology - 4
I would like to give the whole Phenom II technology these points, as it is really wonderful. They can all clock up to 4Ghz on air cooling, which really is amazing.

Performance - 4
AMD still leads the price/performance race. If you want an INTEL which can the same, you need to pay a lot more for it. This CPU has more power than the average user needs, but it still doesn't compare to INTEL's i7.

Price - 5
As written, AMD leads this race, and they are pretty far ahead. With the price tag of about 200 dollars this really is a bargain. If you are thinking of getting a new Phenom, why not get the best?
