While we are waiting for the Intel Core i7 bestsellers to come out, we decided to take a closer look at inexpensive quad-core processors that get more and more popular these days. In our today’s test session we will compare Core 2 Quad Q9400, Core 2 Quad Q9300, Core 2 Quad Q8200, Core 2 Quad Q6600 and Phenom X4 9950 Black Edition.

Final Rendering

Everything we have just said about codecs is also true in 3D rendering applications. It is quite logical, as multi-core optimizations here are also pretty strong. By the way, look at the high score of Phenom X4 in 3ds max: despite all drawbacks of the K10 microarchitecture, AMD processors still boast fast floating-point arithmetic.
