We've been waiting for AMD's brand new architecture for ages, and then Bulldozer turned out to be fairly underwhelming. Can the cheaper, quad-core AMD FX 4100 Black Edition rectify any of its wrongs?Multi-threading and parallelism are all the rage....

We've already reviewed the top processor of AMD's Vishera family, FX-8350. That was just the beginning of the big refresh for the Socket AM3+ platform. AMD has also rolled out a number of more affordable CPUs. Today we're going to cover them in...

Today we'll focus on a pair of AMD's Trinity-based budget processors. Our summer review proved the FM1-based Athlon II X4 processors to be quite good. Now we're going to see if their counterparts can keep up. Testbeds Though the lowest-end FM1-based...

Benchmarking 86 CPUs takes a while. After long last, though, we have 51 models from AMD and 35 from Intel tested in our current suite. If you want to know how your processor sizes up to its competition, you'll find plenty of comparison data inside! 86...

Following our sub-£160 gaming CPU comparison, we put Intel's Core i3-2100 and AMD's FX-4100 under the microscope. This time, we test a number of different graphics cards from AMD to see how GPUs affect perceived processor bottlenecks. At the end of...

Two months ago when we tested the top desktop Bulldozer processor, we concluded that it turned out a big disappointment. The results of our today’s FX series testing, including lower-cost CPU modifications, didn’t change out opinion. Processors on...

The AMD FX-4100 didn't top the charts when it comes to CPU performance, but the low price and solid overclocking results make it a decent chip for those looking for a budget system...

Due to issues with customs/logistics (no fault of AMD's), we're a bit late with our Bulldozer review. I suppose that is fitting in this case, but luckily, this gives us the chance to take a bit more time with the review, testing the Bulldozer CPU under...

The NAS Parallel Benchmarks from NASA were mixed, but generally the i3-2120 managed to outperform the FX-4100. CLOMP is used for measuring the OpenMP efficiency on multiple CPU cores. The FX-4100 did quite poorly for being a quad-core part and...
