AMD FX 8150 AM3+ Bulldozer Processor Review

PCMark 7PCMark 7 provides a set of 7 suites for measuring different aspects of PC performance with a high degree of accuracy. Overall system performance is measured by the PCMark Suite. The Lightweight Suite measures the capabilities of entry level systems and mobility platforms unable to run the full PCMark suite. Common use performance is measured by the Entertainment, Creativity and Productivity scenario suites. Component performance is measured by the Computation and Storage hardware suites. The Storage suite is ideal for testing SSDs and external hard drives in addition to the system drive.

We sadly see very similar results with the 1100T, though the FX edged forward ever so slightly when boosted through use of an overclock. The i7 2600k was clearly in a league of its own though and steamed ahead of the competition, even at stock.
