AMD's Phenom II X6 1055T is one of the best value for money propositions on the market. It's a true six-core CPU that can be found for around $230 from online stores and we heartily recommend it if you want to build yourself a fast PC without spending an...
Abstract: Benchmarking 86 CPUs takes a while. After long last, though, we have 51 models from AMD and 35 from Intel tested in our current suite. If you want to know how your processor sizes up to its competition, you'll find plenty of comparison data inside! 86 C...
Abstract: Our previous review was dedicated to the Core i7-800 LGA1156 series. The conclusion was that those solutions, as well as the Core i7-900 LGA1366 series, can offer enough computing power for most tasks you may need accomplished. At least four cores and ...
Abstract: Dealing with current news means that we rarely have the opportunity to review old products and of course a comparison between the most recent products and those that came out several years ago can get a little problematic. But we’ve decided to push th...

If you are looking to build a new system or upgrade an existing system, the AMD Phenom II X6 1055T processor should be a serious contender on your short list! It offers top of the charts performance, and can be purchased for under ! ...
Abstract: It has been a while since we tested some CPUs. Since about three months AMD is selling it's first Hexa-Core generation, namely the Phenom II X6 1055T and the Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition. Both CPUs are still manufactured in a 45nm SOI process, but ...
Six physical cores, Lots of computing power in multithreaded applications, Turbo Core implementation, Compatibility with older chipsets, Low operating temperatures, Overclocking potential
Price somewhat higher than Core i5 750, Not the best choice for hardcore gamers, Slower than i5 750 or Phenom II X4 965 when just few cores are used
To be honest, several weeks ago while testing Phenom II X6 1090T I was really impressed by flexibility in performance and raw power of six cores in multithreaded applications. This time, Phenom II X6 1055T failed to make such strong impressions. Its sl...
Six Core, Turbo CORE Ability, High Overclockability, Phenom Quality, 9MB Total Cache, AM2/3 Compatability,
None,
Now you can see what my definition of a true enthusiast. It's not someone that can buy the best, or flex the biggest e-peen. It's not someone that knows everything about everything and can flame anyone that disagrees with them. It's someone that has th...
Whatever way you look at it, Phenom II X6 1055T is a very interesting solution that is hard to pass. Even a quick look at a processor price list in any store will be enough for you to notice this CPU. There are only three six-core processor models prod...
sI have to say, I have mixed feelings about the new Phenom II X6 processors. On one hand, it’s nice to see AMD step up to a new price range and actually compete (Intel probably holds a permanent position at $1000, but perhaps the $550-600 i7 9xx are an...
