Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, Phenom X3 and Phenom X4: Which One is the Best USD 200 CPU?

3DMark Vantage Professional

3DMark Vantage is the latest addition to the 3DMark series, measuring Shader 4.0 (i.e. DirectX 10) performance. We ran this program on its default configuration (“Performance” profile), which is run at 1280x1024. We also included the results for the CPU benchmarking done by this program.

Core 2 Duo E8400, Core 2 Quad Q6600, Phenom X3 8750, Phenom X4 9550

Here Core 2 Quad Q6600 achieved a performance similar to Phenom X4 9550, while Core 2 Duo E8400 achieved a performance similar to Phenom X3 8750. Core 2 Quad Q6600 was 4.49% faster than Core 2 Duo E8400 and 5.92% faster than Phenom X3 8750.

On Vantage’s CPU benchmarking Core 2 Quad Q6600 was the fastest CPU, being 18.67% faster than Phenom X4 9550, 38.79% faster than Core 2 Duo E8400 and 46.07% faster than Phenom X3 9550.

Phenom X4 9550 was 16.96% faster than Core 2 Duo E8400 and 23.09% faster than Phenom X3 8750.

And Core 2 Duo E8400 was 5.24% faster than Phenom X3 8750.
