Phenom II X4 970 and Phenom II X6 1075T CPU Review
After Effects CS4
Contents
After Effects is a very well-known program for video post-production that is used to add animation and visual effects in videos. To evaluate the performance of each CPU running this program, we ran a workload consisting of 25 compositions that applied several filters and effects to a variety of input file types such as PSD (Photoshop), AI (Illustrator), EPS, and TIF. After each filter was applied, the composition was rendered to an uncompressed AVI file with the same resolution as the input files. The results below are the time each CPU took to finish the whole batch, given in seconds, so the lower the number the better.
On After Effects CS4, the Phenom II X4 970 and Phenom II X4 965 achieved the same performance level, with the Core i5-750 being 22% faster than the new Phenom II X4 970. The Phenom II X6 1090T was only 4% faster than the new Phenom II X6 1075T, with the Core i5-750 being 7% faster than this new six-core CPU.
