AMD Athlon64 X2 4800+ Processor Review
AMD Athlon64 X2 4800+ Processor Review - PCSTATS
The Athlon64 X2 4800+ processor we're testing is based on the 'ACBWE' stepping, and was built in week 17 of 2005 so it's literally hot off the presses!

Benchmarks: ScienceMark 2.0, ScienceMark 2.0, Super Pi

ScienceMark 2.0 Source: ScienceMark

Mol Dyn: Molecular Dynamics is a method for simulating the thermodynamic behaviour of materials using their forces, velocities, and positions. Most important of the afore mentioned is the force. Primordia: This code calculates the Quantum Mechanical Hartree-Fock Orbital for each electron in any element of the periodic table Lower times indicate better results.

ScienceMark 2.0 is a very heavy number cruncher, making it a good test for taxing the dual core processors. In the results of the Mol Dyn test we find the AMD Athlon64 X2 4800+ almost twice as fast as the Pentium D 840. It is more than twice as fast as the 840 in the Primorida benchmark. Overall, 64-bit computing beats 32 bit software by quite a bit if 64-bit software is being used. If the system is running 32 bit software in a 64 bit environment there is little to no difference.

Super Pi Source: SuperPI

SuperPI calculates the number PI to 1 Million digits in this raw number crunching benchmark. The benchmark is fairly diverse and allows the user to change the number of digits of PI that can be calculated from 16 Thousand to 32 Million. The benchmark, which uses 19 iterations in the test, is set 1 Million digits.

Lower numbers denote faster calculation times (seconds), and hence, better performance.

SuperPi
1 Million Digits: Seconds Ranking
Pentium 4 540 (3.2 GHz 925X 200/533) 41
Pentium D 840 (3.2 GHz 955X 200/533) 39
Pentium D 840 (32 bit Software / 64-bit OS) 40
Athlon64 4000+ (2.4 GHz NF4 SLI 200/400) 35
Athlon64 X2 4800+ (2.4 GHz NF4 SLI 200/400) 35
Athlon64 X2 4800+ (32 Bit Software / 64 Bit OS) 35
Athlon64 X2 4800+ (3.14 GHz NF4 SLI 262/574) 27

The AMD Athlon64 X2 4800+ performs the same as the Athlon64 4000+ at stock speeds, which should not be a surprise since both processors are clocked at the same speed.
