Are there any Conroe vs A64 game benchmarks?

Are there any Conroe vs A64 game benchmarks?

I want to see how much faster a Conroe is compared to my 4400, to see whether its worth upgrading yet.

Yeah my 7800's are dinasours now (I can fry an egg on the side of my tower after gaming).

I looked at upgrading my graphics but it would cost a lot; just for a few more fps, was going to wait for the next generation graphics cards for crysis.
 
Everyone is going on about the Conroe like they're the second coming.

Had my pc a year now & if there is a significant speed increase to be had by upgrading I'll get saving (less beer Doh!).
 
Informative thread, not much fencing...

If you have a new system to build then go Conroe, otherwise if you've already got a good AMD rig then don't bother unless you're loaded.

Think that about sums it up.
 
I get 3dmk06 cpu score 2085 at 2.75Ghz compared to a Conroe at 3.6Ghz getting 3115.
I suppose if my AMD ran at 3.5Ghz I might get near a 3000 CPU score, though not with my old 4400 :(

Good job my 7800's at 450/1.35 bump up my score to 8K :)

I've checked the 3dmk06 compare & my 7800's at the same speeds and a Conroe at 3.375 gets 9111 so my 4400 at 2.75 is not that much slower.

CPU score AMD @ 2.75 = 2085, Conroe @ 3.375 = 2895 ..= not worth upgrading :cool:

Wonder if games will show the same speed increase with Conroe?
