AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ Dual-Core Processor Review (page 14)Category: CPU [ 05/08/2005 | 09:11 PM ] Performance in Scientific Applications
Strange as it might seem, but the Windows XP versions of popular mathematical packages, such as MATLAB and Mathematica, do not support multi-threading. Therefore, Athlon 64 X2 4800+ runs like Athlon 64 4000+, getting just a little faster sometimes due to better optimized memory controller.
However many mathematical modeling tasks can split the calculations into better optimized parallel threads thus ensuring a significant performance improvement in case of dual-core CPUs. You can see it from the results of our ScienceMark test. <%BANNER[banner_468x30]%>
