Thread: What's the Intel Equivalent to the Athlon II X4 620?

Hi everyone,

I'm not purchasing, I'm just inquiring what Intel has to present on there finish.

Thank you all.

The possibly contain solitary core Celerons for that reasonable cost.

The Q8200 is the contiguous presentation wise, but a lot more luxurious and it doesn't overclock in any way.

I was directed obtain some Q8200's actually. But for the identical presentation, if I can obtain this for 100 bucks, it's more value it.

But on the other side we must remember that AM3 motherboards price a load in excess of Intel's 775. So the cost is impartial at the finish of the day.

So generally, Q8200 vs. Athlon II X4? - Who succeed?

As stated, you can either purchase a dual core from Intel for that cost which will present better solitary threaded presentation but do badly in multithreaded software/multitasking, or you can use up akin to another $50 to get the Q8200. Intel has nothing with above 2 cores in that price variety, its one of the reasons the Phenom II X3 sequence has been victorious.

Along with that, the x4 620 wins 15 and the q8200 wins 18. Both CPUs are virtually equal so gaze at the other stuff that moves toward bright.

In this situation the x4 620 are a lot cheaper generally and have a palpable improve path. Anybody with a brain would decide the x4 620 over the q8200 now. My individual principle is that the OP will decide the Q8200 because he wants to purchase Intel.

If we're searching benchmarks, anybody with a brain can observe that the 8200 wins 3 over the 620. So based on presentation benchmarks, you'd be an idiot to purchase the 620 more than the q8200, right? You can query aptitude all you want, but it all dropped to context.

To the OP, if you desire to future-proof (which is moot anyway), you'll perhaps desire to obtain the 620 because of its socket. And to be wholly sincere, only losing 3 benchmarks to the Q8200 at that cost isn't bad at all. My next construct will probably be a dev web server with the 620.

Hello All.

Using those similar and tech charts it appears akin to the q6600 at supply is about the similar too.

Though chances are you won't locate any new for sale, perhaps utilized.

Not actually. I signify if these were the just two CPU’s available and you merely had to contain the finest then certain you'd obtain the 8200 at any value premium. That isn't accurately the situation though is it?

If you desire to take the best at the cost point? Let's compare the X4 630 to the Q8200:-

X4 630 wins 21, Q8200 wins 10. That’s at the similar cost alone.

So on p/p the 620 actually walks all over the q8200 and on presentation at the identical cost the x4 630 walks finished the Q8200. The summary of it is, the Q8200 is not worth trade under any circumstance, and that is what I'm trying to get across here. I'm not saying the q8200 is bad btw - it's not it’s a polite enough cpu, it's just expensive compared to the corresponding AMD.

You can OC the q8200 to about 2.9-3 GHz... After that it’s no go because it has a max 7x multiplier.

Stock is 7x333... Max available without craziness= 7x425 with first-class motherboard = approximately 3 GHz.

The elder q6600 that arrived with a 9x multiplier.

Most people overclock by departing from 266x9 to a little akin to 400x8 my a bit motherboard appears constant to about 455 but it runs fairly hot... So I frequently run it at 400x8 = 3.2 GHz.

I absolutely would purchase the amd over the q8200, but you are almost certainly better off coming up than purchasing any Intel socket 775 unless it’s a superior sale.
