*/"AMD’s Phenom X3 8750 is a good processor in isolation and one that
overclocks incredibly well based on our experiences. However, the sad
fact is that the three Phenom cores aren’t fast enough to see off the
competition from Intel’s higher-clocked (and sometimes cheaper)
dual-core processors and the sucker punch for AMD really is the Core 2
Quad Q6600.
In applications where the triple core Phenom //has the potential to show
its muscle, the Core 2 Quad Q6600 waltzes in and mops it up in quite
spectacular fashion. It’s a shame, because we were expecting the Phenom
X3 8750 to be a good value proposition for the enthusiast. However, if
you’re looking to upgrade a current socket AM2 system, we’d recommend
spending that little bit more and getting a quad-core Phenom – it’s
absolutely worth it."/
