Abstract: We were frankly a little surprised when AMD introduced its Socket AM3 interface two months ago next to a handful of lower-end CPUs, especially with the Phenom II X4 940 already available on AM2+ platforms. Not that the triple-core Phenom II X3 700- and...
The £200 AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition AM3 CPU brings the fight to higher-specified Intel Core 2 Quads and knocks on Core i7s door. Core i5, when launched, should put it back in its place, but the AMD price-chopping machine may well be called in...
It only took two months, but AMD finally has a flagship to lead its march forward with Socket AM3. We’re still not looking at a Core i7-killer (or even competitor) here. After all, AMD’s fastest offering isn’t able to match even the slow...
It has taken AMD more than long enough, but the company is finally in a situation where its processors are competitive in the performance mainstream market segment. The Phenom II X4 955, 945/940 and the Phenom II X3 720 are all very competitive at the...

which ought to be fairly straightforward. The performance contest between the Phenom II X4 955 and the Core 2 Quad 9550 is crazy close, and even the X4 955s one apparent weakness, a higher power/thermal rating, turned out to be a non-issue in our te...
From a pure price/performance standpoint, AMD is certainly competing hard. The X4 955 BE closely matches Intels Q9550, but with a smaller price-tag. One must also consider the motherboards available especially if gaming is not an issue. Full-sized AM...
Abstract: When AMD released its first socket AM3 Phenom processors back in February I commented that it was likely AMD had been holding back on a flagship mega-fast AM3 quad core so as not to rain on the socket AM2+ 940 Black Edition , a CPU that was only a month o...
Le Phenom II 955 Black Edition est donc bel et bien le processeur que nous regrettions de ne pas avoir entre les mains en février dernier à la sortie des premiers Phenom II AM3, il est performant et représente le haut de gamme de chez AMD...
Intel est étonnamment discret en cette année 2009. Depuis la sortie des Core i7 en novembre 2008, on ne peut pas dire que les nouveautés se soient bousculées au portillon. Tout au plus on aura noté l’apparition discrète...
Make no mistake, AMD has another solid part on their hands. The Phenom II X4 955 performs up to expectations, it does not consume all that much more power than previous versions, and the updates to the clockspeeds and DDR-3 memory make it a much more...
