AMD Sempron 3100+ benchmarked - tech
(hx) 01:37 PM CEST - Jul,01 2004 - Post a comment
A64 2800+ (9x200 512kb L2 cache) to the left A64 Sempron 3100+ (9x200 256kb L2 cache) to the right
It seems that the Sempron is just 2.1% slower in 3dmark2001, 0.4% slower in Superpi ,4.4% faster in Prime95 ,only 1.2% slower in PC-Mark2004 (0.25% Memory score / 2.2%CPU score) and only 4.5% slower in CPUMark 99 compared to the A64 2800+ wich runs at the same clockspeed!! The only difference between the 2800+ and the Sempron 3100+ is that the latter has only 256kb L2 cache. Also, the Semprons have their 64bit registers disabled, they are locked to work in 32bit mode only. Since Windows XP-64 is _STILL_ not officially released, and most drivers are still slower than for XP 32-bit and some drivers are even not available for XP-64, this move is just logical. Even without the 64bit registers this CPU is more than fast enough to compete with Intel's CPUs! and YES, it is basically a A64 2800+ with half the L2 cache. However, its seems that the missing L2 cache doesn't have a big impact on its performance.
