comparison between two CPUs: higher frequency vs lower FSB
by longtalker - 1/16/09 3:20 AMI'm trying to compare two Core2 Duo CPUs (T5800 vs T5850) but I can't find them listed together in any averaged benchmarking chart, so I have to crunch all the numbers myself, and in this case it's a bit tricky: the two CPUs differ in terms of clock frequency and FSB: T5850 is 2.16 GHz but only 667 MHz FSB, while T5800 is only 2.00 GHz but has a 800 MHz FSB.
Is one likely to be faster than the other, or does one's higher clock frequency make up for the lower FSB?

So close.

Only a benchmark will tell and then you will see one win then the other. For all intent let's call them equal.
