Notes



A couple of things to note before viewing the benchmark graphs. Firstly, the Pentium D 820's aggressive pricing puts it in line with AMD's sing-core Athlon 64 3500+. Be sure to check out their relative performance. The Pentium 4 670, on the other hand, is slated to hit upon the current Athlon 64 FX-55's pricing territory. It's pricey single-core against cheap dual-core.
