Mathematical computations

Did you expect anything else in math1ematical modeling tasks? The high-performance FPUs of Athlon 64 CPUs leave no chance to the competing processors.

3D rendering

If there were no dual-core architectures, the Athlon 64 FX-57 would be the best processor for 3D rendering. But such tasks can be easily paralleled, so the use of single-core architectures is now inefficient for them.
