Gaming Applications

There is nothing to comment on, actually. Contemporary games do not support multi-threading. That is why Pentium Extreme Edition 840 with its low clock rate turns out an outside in this type of tasks. In other words, if Athlon 64 X2 run as fast as the top Athlon 64 CPUs due to their relatively high clock frequency, the gaming performance of the Pentium Extreme Edition 840  is quite modest (compared with the performance of the other CPUs from the same price category, of course).
