  • Triple Core The smallest triple core is only slightly cheaper than a Phenom X4 9500. The quad core might be of the B2 stepping but already shows its superiority, as long as you dont just play games. The processors of the B3 stepping are favored for t...

  • Before we head into the conclusion let me just state that this wasnt a review loaded with benchmarks and other CPUs as we usually have. DHL delivery was late, very late and less than 15 hrs prior to the passing of the NDA the CPU arrived. Though we d...

  • If you step back and look at it, the triple-core Phenom story isnt unexpected at all. In applications where quad-core benefits, triple-core does too and in those applications where it doesnt, we dont see much from the new Phenom X3. In video encodi...

  • AMD is doing better nowadays, products announced do really appear. At press time, the prices for a Phenom X3 8750 and Phenom X4 9750 are exactly the same, which is ridiculous. To be on the safe side, we advise you not to use a Phenom X4 9850 ,which is ...

  • From a strict performance point of view the AMD Phenom X3 8750 CPU is not going to win any awards in most cases. The 8750 cannot be compared strictly against the Intel Quad Core CPUs with the exception of the Q6600 which has a nearly similar price poin...

  • We didnt have enough time to run through our overclocking gamut, but we were able to boost the HT clock to 229MHz on air without any problems. Temperatures were also quite good, hovering in the mid-30C using our Zalman CNPS cooler. While some of the ...

  • AMDs new triple-core Phenom X3 8x50-series of processors isnt a slam dunk in performance or value compared to existing AMD parts but they do add a new twist to the constantly raging budget computer battle. The X3 line can add some performance to a ...

  • Supports current AM2motherboard, Triple-Core, TLB errata fixed, Excellent memory management and bandwidth, Good performance if the applications are multi-threaded, Has potential
  • Performance is not as great as one would hope for, Does not overclcok well, Power consumption is higher than the competitor
  • The road ahead of AMD looks even challenging with the release of the Phenom X3. We put it against a year and half old E6600 processor that runs at the same clock speed as the X3 8750 and the results shows that in day-to-day applications, it hardly pe...
