AMD Phenom II X6 1055T and 1090T: More Cores, Less Price
WinZip 14

Again, clock speed is the more dominant factor in this benchmark. In AES 256-bit encryption test, Intel’s Core i5 655K is significantly faster because it comes equipped with the AES-NI instructions.

In 1080p MPEG-4 video transcoding scenario, higher clockspeed means faster processing. The “Phenom II X4 965” holds a clear lead over the 1055T and 1090T BT in this particular part of the video test. On the other hand, the higher number of available threads helps reducing the time needed to finish the process in 720p MPEG-4 video transcoding scenario, giving the 1055T and 1090T BE an extra edge over the competition.

Processors with more cores/ threads are clearly superior in this synthetic benchmark, as seen from the “CPU Score” comparison chart. By overclocking the 1090T BE to 4,1 GHz, we even scored more than 20 thousand points.
