65nm Dual Core: The Pentium D 930 - PAGE 7
William Henning - Friday, April 28th, 2006

LAME MP3

Here we have a pleasant surprise; the OC'd 930 has turned in the best LAME time to date! The OC'd 940 followed closely. The stock 930 was where we'd expect it.

TMPGEnc

The stock 930 beat the stock 840 (I guess the larger L2 cache helped here); and the OC'd 930 was only beaten by the Athlon FX-60.

WinRAR

A very impressive performance for the 930 for WinRAR; when overclocked beating everybody, and beating the 830 and FX-60 when running at stock settings.
