Overall Performance using WorldBench 5
Our final set of overall system performance tests come from WorldBench 5, which is a pretty good tool for looking at older application performance as well as single-threaded performance.

Despite being composed predominately of single-threaded tests, WorldBench 5 shows the Athlon 64 FX-60 at the top of the charts with the highest score that we've seen to date - a 120.

What no overclocking tests. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? The thing is totally unlocked! What the hell.ViRGE - Tuesday, January 10, 2006 - link
It's the same Toledo core as the rest of the 1MB X2's, I doubt it would overclock much better in the first place.Anand Lal Shimpi - Tuesday, January 10, 2006 - link
With a retail AMD heatsink/fan, the best we could do is 2.8GHz at 1.40V. With more exotic cooling you could probably manage better, but stepping up the voltage all the way up to 1.50V wouldn't yield a 3GHz overclock on air.I'm going to update the article with the results, I meant to have them in the conclusion initially but it slipped my mind when posting.
Take care,
Anand
