AMD Athlon II X4 645 3.1GHz Socket AM3 Quad-Core Processor Review
AMD Athlon II X4 645 3.1GHz Socket AM3 Quad-Core Processor Review - PCSTATS
In this review PCSTATS is testing AMD's latest mainstream quad-core chip, the 3.1GHz Athlon II X4 645 processor. Architecturally speaking the Athlon II X4 645 is identical to the preceding Athlon II X4 635 model, except for a modest clock speed increase.

CPU Calculation Benchmarks: wPrime2.0

wPrime 2.0 Source: WPrime

wPrime uses a recursive call of Newton's method for estimating functions, with f(x)=x2-k, where k is the number we're sqrting, until Sgn(f(x)/f'(x)) does not equal that of the previous iteration, starting with an estimation of k/2. It then uses an iterative calling of the estimation method a set amount of times to increase the accuracy of the results. It then confirms that n(k)2=k to ensure the calculation was correct. It repeats this for all numbers from 1 to the requested maximum.

Lower calculation times are better. wPrime is multi-threaded.

Wprime fills in where SuperPi leaves off, allowing PCSTATS to stress one core, or any number of cores up to the total amount in the processor. The CPUs benchmarked here range from two to eight threads, so the most important result set to pay attention to is the final block (all threads).

With all four of its threads unleashed, the 3.1GHz Athlon II X4 645 is competitively paced against Intel's Core i5 750 (about dead even) and just three seconds off the low calculation time of the eight-threaded Core i7 920, Phenom II X6 1075T and 1090T CPUs.
