my german is rusty
but from what i can tell you have the Q9300 overclocked to 3.5ghz and compared to stock settings for all others - kinda worthless!

now if they overclock all the chips to 3.5ghz that would help!

They also show the result with the stock speed (at 2.5Ghz). Look carefully at the graph...

Google does a good job at translating it. Well, enough to understand :)

Yep... Phenom is native... belongs in its own class below the burger king cheese burgers. It would be more like the whalers since its a nice square shape, not round like the whopper.

Its a fish sandwitch, or better known as BK Fish or Whaler back in the old days. :D

In my terms the C2Q series is like a nice juicy double whopper and the Phenom is a tasteless SOI burger.

Well, it shows that the 9300 is nice little quad if you can wind it that tight. Probably not much more OC left since the FSB is already at 466* however and no guarantee that everyone will get that high of FSB. My Q6600 at 3.4 posts 5100+ in the CPU score and it is impressive for everyday use including gaming.

*Edit: Sorry... multiplier is 7.5 and the Yorkies seem to hit a FSB wall between 460-470.

Ah that fits perfectly then. There's definitely something "phishy" about the Phenom.

Yeah I'm not all that excited about the 9300 since the multiplier is set so low. I plan on sticking with my Q6600 until Nehalem.

Looks like about less than 5% increase in most games... not worth the upgrade.

Your... disappointed? Well.. shucky darns, I guess you'll be getting a phenom system, right? Or did you want the Q6600 whopper with cheese?
