Notes
In F.E.A.R. Core 2 Duo E6400 outruns the X2 4600+ by 3% at 800x600, while the CPU’s pull even at the GPU-bound resolution of 1600x1200 with 4xAA/8xAF. It’s looking like the E6400 vs. X2 4600+ is a much closer race than the 4MB Core 2 Duo CPUs. Let’s take a look at performance in Quake 4 though, which has been reprogrammed to take advantage of dual-core CPUs.
When looking over the benches, it’s important to keep in mind that the 3500+ and X2 4800+ are running on AMD’s older Socket 939 platform with DDR1 memory. That explains why the 4600+ is able to keep up with the 4800+ despite having less L2 cache.
