Benchmarks: SiSoftware Sandra XII


The memory bandwidth performance of the Phenom X4 9850 is very good, producing similar results to the unreleased 9900 processor. Keep in mind that the B2 Phenom processors are not running the TLB patch and therefore should offer the same performance as the new B3 Phenoms when operating at the same frequency.

As a result, when running the SiSoftware Sandra XII processor performance test, the 2.5GHz 9850 slotted in between the 9700 and 9900 processors.
