Gaming Tests
Far Cry Low Res Platform Test
We start with a low-res test, just to affirm non graphics-bound performance. AM2 holds its ground, FX-62 leads nicely.
Quake 4
We switch to high-res tests to round things out.Low-res testing can unfairly treat certain Netburst CPUs, but overall the order stays the same with high-res work.
Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
AM2 is faster at the same clocks with FX-62 outrunning the XE, something the FX-60 and 62 @ 60 wouldn't have done (although by margins you wouldn't care about).
