Alright so the reviews flying around out there do a good job of demonstrating some of the differences between these two generations of FX but none have done head to head clock for clock comparisons that I'm aware of.
The tests I will be running my 8120 against my 8320 both using my GTX 460 at stock speeds. Comparisons will be made using *identical settings, in gaming benchmarks. I will run each benchmark at various CPU speeds three times each and post the middle result.
The tests:
3DMark Vantage - performance
3DMark11 - basic
HWBot Haven basic and xtreme
Metro 2033
**Dirt 2/3
I may be willing to run additional tests as I have a bit of free time in the next few weeks. If there's a particular test you'd like to see let me know and I will consider it. My biggest limiting factor on actual game tests is what I own. Im happy to run games with included benchmarking tools but I will not be doing anything with FRAPS or similar software.
Note* My 990FXa-UD3 does not report "Rated FSB" in CPUz, it never has all tests will be run with an x11 NB and HT link multiplier
Note** will be run if I have time.
