Dell's First XPS System With AMD Phenom II Tested 75

MojoKid writes "Dell's new XPS 625 is their latest AMD-based creation, and is the first out of the Dell labs using the relatively new Phenom II processor. Initial reviews of AMD's new chip have been favorable, as this new quad-core processor is slated to deliver roughly the same performance as Intel's quad-core Core 2 processors at more tolerable price points. While it's pretty clear that the Phenom II can't quite crack Core i7 levels of performance in most usage scenarios, the new Dell rig does show more than respectfully in a myriad of benchmarks. This was obviously a solid design win for AMD with their latest CPU."

    "AMD's new Phenom II X4 940 chip is a speedy little bugger"

    But what is a "speedy little bugger"? A Gerbil?

    This phrase makes the author sound dumb.
