Testurteil: "8/10"
Test: Einzeltest: Intel Pentium G6950 CPU
Zitat: At stock speeds, the Pentium G6950 has a genuine rival in the Athlon II X3 445 – both produce the same overall score, but the X3 445 will reduce the time you have to wait for lengthy video or audio encodes and is more adept at heavy multi-tasking. As it’s these kinds of applications that you tend to get annoyed at having to wait for, there’s an argument for opting for the X3 455. That argument gets blown out of the water if you’ve got a decent H55 motherboard and can overclock the G6950. It’s an amazing CPU for overclocking – we suspect that even our 65 per cent overclock wasn’t all that the chip could give up, with the chipset becoming a limiting factor as we hit the 220MHz Base Clock barrier. Once overclocked, the G6950 is a brilliant performer for almost any type of use. If you’re on a budget, and aren’t scared of a little vcore, the G6950 is an epic processor.
