AMD FX 8320e 8 core CPU Review
Cinebench and Luxmark
Published: 21st January 2015 | Source: AMD | Price: £109.99 |
Cinebench
In Cinebench we see similar results to wPrime and x264, with the FX 8320e performing roughly 8-10% slower than the FX 8320, with overclocked results of the 8320e showing a 42% gain in performance.
Again like x264 and wPrime we see the 8 cores of the AMD FX CPUs really show off their raw performance in this highly threaded test.
Luxmark
In Luxmarks CPU test we see again that both the FX 8 core CPUs perform very similarly, with the 8320e slightly trailing behind. Our overclock here provides a 22% gain in performance over stock.
Compared to the quad core CPUs tested we see that this test heavily favours the massive thread count of the FX 83xx CPUs where we see an almost doubling of performance compared to the quad cores.

The power draw results are very impressive, given that it is mostly changes in the microcode and the performance you get for the price is fantastic. |
I just wish AMD could hang with the big boys again, as soon as they do it I'll build an AMD rig. I'd love to but I'm not really on the market for budget components as good as this may be for the price. :\Quote
Some new high-end gear from them would be nice 
need something sexy to slot into my PC-P50R. That case is a weird AMD anchor for me 
I should never have bought it!Quote
