UmptionEach core is slower than Intel’s
Seems to be slower at severe multitasking than the Intel system.
As you have seen on the previous pages of benchmarks, the AMD Phenom X3 8750 perform outstandingly. Compared to Intels Core 2 Duo E6600 which is priced at $230, $45 more than the Phenom X3, the performance is outstanding for its price. Being aimed fo...
AMD’s Phenom X3 8750 is a good processor in isolation and one that overclocks incredibly well based on our experiences. However, the sad fact is that the three Phenom cores aren’t fast enough to see off the competition from Intel’s highe...
I was pleasantly surprised by how well the AMD Phenom 8750 Tri-Core performed compared to an AMD X2 5000+ and even a Phenom 9600. For office, encoding and multi-media tasks, it held its own at stock speeds against a higher clocked Core 2 Duo E6750 tha...
Betterthan Dual Core Multithreading, Lowerthan Quad Core Power and Thermal Requirements, Good Overclocking, Updated B3 Core, Entrylevel Pricing
Lackluster Gaming Performance, 65nm, 2.4 GHz Max Clock
The implications of the Phenom X3 8750 launch are very clear, and AMD is providing a "better than dual core" solution to compete directly against Intels Core 2 Duo. This should also ring the dinner bell for systems using the low-cost AMD 780G chipset...

Abstract: I know that many of you will be wondering why I did not include a comparison with an Intel C2D. The honest truth is that I did not have time. I wanted to get this out to you on time and did not have a comparable board for Intel that was a close match f...
Somewhat surprisingly, AMDs new Phenom X3 8750 performed exactly as a triple-core CPU should in our battery of benchmarks. When the chips were first announced, we werent sure how todays applications would react to a non-symmetrical multi-core proc...
AMDs Phenom triple core processors are in a bit of an unusual posistion. The highest-end triple core we reviewed is at a good price at $195 coming in under $200 but for nearly the same price one can pick up a Phenom 9550 which runs 200MHz slower but p...

Abstract: AMD Phenom X3 Processors It has been about five months since AMD released their first Phenom quad core processors. The launch was somewhat disappointing in the eyes of many—lower than expected clock speeds and the highly publicized TLB bug cast quite ...
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...
