Perhaps, but I didn't do that testing for this thread, I did it for the thread I linked to on the Caligari forum [I just haven't gotten round to posting it there yet], & also to satisfy my own curiosity. As I don't use Cinema4D, testing with Cinebench would be pointless.

I'm fairly sure they're in the 2-3Ghz range now. In fact I
know they've had Barcelona up to 3Ghz, but I don't know if that's the 2 or 4 core version. Also, the reason I posted that info was in response to his comment about memory performance on the 5600 vs. the 6000, for which the data was adequate to illustrate my point. How a C2D would or wouldn't perform is completely irrelevent for comparing 2 AMD chips from the same family to each other.

Seriously though, I don't think he's had a problem with stability [except when using CPU-Z
], I believe it was temperatures & noise that he wanted to reduce.
