Testing Methodology In order to test the X3 720 and the X4 810, we are going to reuse several of our test results from the Phenom II 940 review. In addition, we will be using an E8400 and the same X3360 to emulate the speeds of a Q8200 as closely as we can. Both of these test bench setups are listed below:
In the case of the x3360, we clocked it down to 7x333 to run it at 2.33GHz in an attempt to best emulate the closest cost competitor to the X4 810. The Q8200 has significantly less cache (4MB vs. 12MB) than the x3360, however, so it is important to realize that the "emulated" testing of the x3360 represents the best possible scenario for the Q8200. Now, let's get on with the results, shall we?
