The outcome in WinRAR appears pretty familiar after the past several pages of benchmark results.

7-Zip puts the A4 and Pentium much closer together, though the Core i3 wraps up our workload almost three minutes faster.

Regardless of how we benchmark WinZip, using the same folder full of data, he finishing order remains the same: Core i3, Pentium, A4-5000.

What was the Texture Filtering (AMD) set at? If it is at quality, no wonder it is chugging. If it's at performance...Ergh.
Also, what happens when RadeonPro and it's performance tweaks are thrown in? Would setting the mip-maps to performance help at all?
What about the few optimization settings?

2nd: the gpu clocks of kabini are standard while intels are variable (favors intel, innacurate results)
3rd: kabini's gpu is probably bottlenecked by ram speed?
