A8-5600K vs. Pentium G2120 CPU Review
WinZip
Contents
We used WinZip not only to measure compression time, but also decryption time. We measured the time each CPU took to decompress and decrypt 200 JPEG images, 125 of them at 10 megapixels and 75 of them at six megapixels. The total size of all the photos was around 830 MB. The results below are given in seconds, so the lower the number the better.
Decompressing and decrypting files, the A8-5600K was 19% faster than the Pentium G2120 and 21% faster than the Core i3-2100. It was also 19% faster than the A8-3870K and 24% faster than the A8-3850.
