Abstract: Dealing with current news means that we rarely have the opportunity to review old products and of course a comparison between the most recent products and those that came out several years ago can get a little problematic. But we’ve decided to push th...
The 820 D proved to be a great CPU, especially given its cost. For $175US, you can have a great dual core cpu in your rig. I compared the 820 D to my Venice 3200+, which cost $270 when it was new. Just a year later, you get twice the power for less m...
Overall performance with the D 820 is good. In most tests, it reported better performance than the P4 650. These were mainly CPU benchmark tests with SiSoft Sandra, PCMark05 or Prime95. But in games, the P4 650 reported higher framerates. However, if...
The gaming performance of the dual-core Pentium D 820 is nothing spectacular, as these games are not designed to take advantage of this processor feature. Therefore, the dual-core Pentium processor was no faster than its slightly higher clocked single-...

If you run only single threaded applications and only one application at a time, then that should tell you exactly what processor you need: the fastest single core CPU Intel or AMD make. But that isn’t always the case for most users. I would...
In this review we tried to compare the processors from the mainstream pricing segment of the today’s CPU market. The situation here changed when Intel announced its dual-core Pentium D processors. The lowest model in this family working at 2.8GHz co...
Abstract: In recent months, the race between the two major industry playersto bring dual-core processing to the masses has heated up.On April 4th, Intel delivered its first dual-core Pentium offering in the form of the Intel Pentium Extreme Edition 840. AMD was soo...
