The AMD Bulldozer architecture certainly has its advantages when the applications can utilise all of the cores and threads when you compare it to their older Phenom II range of processors. However, in certain games, it does appear to perform worse. Ev...
Sadly, its more of the same bad news for AMD or anyone with a Socket AM3+ motherboard looking for a decent CPU for around the £150 mark. The FX-8120 just isn't a good choice when it comes to the kind of applications we run on our PCs. It's regularly ou...
The CPU presentation box is very special, much more interesting than the solution chosen by Intel; the included CPU cooler is pretty loud and we recommend acquiring a custom cooling solution right from the start. By using a high-end air CPU cooler, ...
Good performance in multithread programs, Availability, Price
Bad performance in single thread, Power consumption (especially if overclocked)
FX-8120, like the Bulldozer platform in whole, is bit of a weird product on the market. While it has mediocre performance in multithreaded programs, it falls far behind similarly priced Intel processors in singlethreaded programs. Intel i5 2500K did b...

Abstract: Dal tecnologicamente lontano 2006 AMD è all'inseguimento di Intel nel mercato dei processori, ovvero da quando i primi Core 2 sono stati lanciati, sbaragliando le performance degli Athlon 64. Da allora la casa di Sunnyvale non è più riuscita a riprende...
Bra prestanda i flertrådade program, Tillgänglighet, Priset,
Dålig prestanda i singeltrådade program, Strömförbrukning (särskilt om man överklockar)
FX-8120, liksom Bulldozer-plattformen i sin helhet, är lite av en konstig produkt på marknaden. Även om det är mediokert resultat i flertrådade program, faller den långt bakom Intel-processorer i samma prisklass i singeltrådade program. Intel i5 2500K...
