Benchmarks: CATIA & Pro/Engineer


The CATIA performance was much the same on all four Phenom processors, with the Q6600 showing 11% faster performance in one of the tests and about the same in the other.

The Core 2 Duo E8400 delivered far superior performance to any Phenom processor in both tests.


The Core 2 Quad Q6600 was slightly faster than the Phenom X4 9850 in the ProE test. With the rest of other Phenoms scaling marginally based on its relative clock speeds.
