No, not really.

It's a different story against SB though...

you are comparing a 6core cpu against 4core cpus? haha funny guy

doesn't really matter when that 6 core cpu is cheaper than 4 cores one.

Those results don't seem right. Even more with the Handbrake results. Here's multiple benchmarks for x264 and Handbrake from different sites that show just about the same results.

Nehalem base cpus still take the top, now I won't lie the difference isn't all that much. Even better considering the price of the 1090t and the 980x. Hell, the 1055t overclocks pretty decently for having a locked multiplier, and is still cheaper than both. And then when you look at game performance, i7's only really take off a whole lot in lower resolutions that are cpu bound.

Quote:you are comparing a 6core cpu against 4core cpus? haha Smile funny guy

i7's are multithreaded, and the 980x is 6 cores 12 threads. So normally 4 cores, and 8 threads and more cache available. Seems fair to me. If you want to get into technical details, Bulldozer isn't a real 8 core cpu.

I don't see anything wrong, 1090T thoroughly beat 920 (and its successor, 930, cpus with least gap in price at the time) on x264 benchmark (Handbrake use it too) on all the site you referenced. Of course you won't compare sub 200 cpu with 1000+ cpu are you?

The 920 and the 930 aren't the only Nehalem based i7's out there. There's the 8 series, and the other 9xx cpus out there that are using a Nehalem base. But of course I am, both are high end cpu's from both companies. Now again, for the price difference that's between the x6 series and the 975 and 980x, the difference in performance is not that big of a gap. So unless you're looking for high busting number crunching results, or want to run osx86 vanilla perfectly and even have the $1000 or so to pay for it, 980x is the best bet. But for nice a nice performance/price ratio, AMD wins this no problem.

Handbrake
975 shows improvement over the 1090t
980x shows improvement over the 1090t
x264
870 shows improvement over the 1090t
940 shows improvement over the 1090t
965 shows improvement over the 1090t
975 shows improvement over the 1090t
980x(obviously ) shows improvement over the 1090t
1090t shows improvement over the 975 when overclocked to 4.1ghz, but guarantee that if you overclock the 975 to 4.1ghz, clock per clock the 975 would show improvement.
1090t oced to 4.1ghz shows improvement by 1

I'd argue there are other variable regarding that 870 result, but let's stop here, both are obsolete cpu anyway. Bulldozer is looking good, at least in term of price, can't wait for true bench, although they already have one for interlagos.

Man this is embarrassing. The tested cpu is the best Bulldozer cpu out there and it loses to a 2600K in everything, and especially in single threaded (or limited threaded) apps by a large margin while using a higher clock rate at the same time .
