Can't Touch An Intel 6-Core In Terms of Performance
Small Speed Bump Over 1090T
Limited performance increase over previous top-of-the-line AMD CPU. Outperformed in key areas by similarly-priced Intel chips.
Only a minor speed bump over previous AMD six-core CPU
Intel's high-end processors still significantly speedier
Intel still has a better performance in light threaded application
Cheaper Thuban CPUs are just as fast with a little tweaking
Not as much cache as competitive Intel processors
Cannot support an NVIDIA SLI system with AMD chipset motherboard
Yes, the AMD speed bumps are here again. In what has almost become a bi-monthly tradition, we're starting to take the company's increasing clock rates and seemingly-static price tags for granted. Unfortunately, we can only overclock our Phenom II X6 1...

So there you have it. AMD’s new flagship CPU is able to mostly keep pace with (and sometimes slip past) Intel’s top LGA1156 CPU. Normally this would get a recommendation, but it just isn’t the case this time. Why? Bulldozer and Sandy Bridge are com...
There are some good news about the new Phenom II X6 1100T. It comes with the same price tag the Phenom II X6 1090T used to carry, meaning that AMD dropped the price for all the other six-core CPUs they have. The second thing really good about this CPU ...
Abstract: Back in the early days of personal computing, manufacturers realized that in order for the dream of having a PC in every household to become a reality, the price of a system must be affordable and within reach of the average consumer. One of the conce...
Final Words & Conclusion The conclusion on AMD's six-core processors tend to get a little repetitive, but yeah... they surely do offer a lot of value for money. Despite being a minor speed bump over the 1090T for the money you really can't go wrong h...
The Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition does little to improve upon the performance of AMD's hexa-core CPU series. However, it does help improve the value of these high-end desktop processors by making the 1090T BE model even cheaper. With an MSRP of $29...
We can say that the 1100T is of the same breed as the previous X6 chips, but it has more overclocking headroom it appears, and the speeds reachable by Turbo are insane. It wasn't that long ago that AMD chips couldn't touch 4GHz, and grew exponentially ...
I'm really pleased with the AMD Phenom II X6 1100T, it's an excellent value for the performance. In fact, the Phenom II X6 1100T is launching at a lower price ($265) than the Phenom II X6 1090T was when it originally came out ($295). The current price...
It's really nice to see the Phenom II X6s at such low prices. The 1075T, at a round 3GHz and selling for $200, is a real killer. If one wants better overclocking and an unlocked multiplier, the 1090T isn't much more expensive at $229. The step up to t...
