CPU Performance
SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility capable of benchmarking the performance of individual components inside a PC.
CPU Arithmetic
The CPU arithmetic test ascertains the processor's capabilities in terms of numerical operations. Two subtests named Dhrystone and Whetstone are carried out respectively. This is not a measure of latency and thus higher is better.
Stock for stock, the 1090T kicks off with a marginal lead, while of course the overclocked 1075T turns the tables, leaving the range topping unit for dead.
CPU Multimedia
The CPU Multimedia Test focuses on CPU based operations that may occur during multimedia based tasks. The magnitude of the score depends on the processor's ability to handle Integer, Float and Double data types
Nothing too dissimilar here as we conclude our tests with SiSoft Sandra. Do you see £30's worth of performance gains between the two processors? Hold onto your opinions for now.
CPU Queen
CPU Queen is based on branch prediction and the misprediction penalties that are involved.
Some very competitive scores being generated here. Once again, the 1075T clings onto the 1090T with little trouble.
CPU Photoworxx
PhotoWorxx as the name may suggest tests processors by means of invoking functions that are common to Photo Manipulation including Fill, Flip, Crop, Rotate, Difference and Colour to B&W conversion.
The Photoworxx test offers a similar outcome.
CPU ZLib
This is an integer based benchmark that will test the CPU and Memory by means of the CPU ZLib compression library.
Zlib's operations in particular appear to really leverage the additional power that the overclocked 1075T offers, pushing well ahead of both stock processors.

Great review as always guys. What cooler did you use for this, and what were the temperatures like? |

I agree that they desperately need to update the K10 architecture (I'm pretty sure Helen of Troy had one). But for massively multithreaded programs, the AMD is still a smart buy.Quote
