Benchmarks: Medium Quality Gaming
When testing in Unreal Tournament 3 we find that the Core 2 Duo E7200 is on par with the Phenom X3 8750 in terms of performance. That said, the Phenom X4 9650 was only a fraction faster, while both the Q6600 and E8400 did hold quite strong leads over the E7200.
When testing Crysis on the E7200 we found the performance to be quite good, as this dual-core processor matched the Q6600, making it much faster than the Phenom X4 series at both the tested resolutions.
The Supreme Commander results were more like those seen in UT3, as the E7200 once again matches the Phenom X3 8750, while just losing to the Phenom X4 9650 processor.
