Gaming: Quake III and UT2003
The 820 processor is almost the slowest CPU on the Q3 tests in the Normal mode and when we turn up the details to the maximum settings it does indeed fall behind everything else shown here. Running at only 2.4 GHz, the 820 is going to have some problems keeping up in our strictly single threaded benchmarks.
In UT2003, this is also pretty apparent.

I hate this! I’ve changed my AMD3500+ to this, and it sucks. My single core AMD is much much better than this.
You might not have “Hyper
You might not have “Hyper Threading” enabled in BIOS,…so it would be registering as Single Core in Window,..or a much slower MHz Dual,…The Pentium D 820 2.8GHz (Pentium XE 820) is a Pentium D “Extreme” Edition,..and in PC-Wizard 2010 Latest edition,..The CPU Benchmarks a full 1000+ CPU Marks Higher then the Athlon 64 x2 3800+,…I just put a “Spare Parts” System together,..something simple to run My Home Security DVR System,..had one of them laying around from parts I accuire from working on other People’s Systems as a Hobbie,…..and ran a Standard Settings CPU Benchmark,…and it scored 15825,…and the Athlon 64 x2 only scores 14799,…so it may just be a settings issue as it should DEFFinetly score higher then the 3500+
If You still have problems and need someone to walk You through any settings changes,..I’d be happy to walk You through it. bkweber64@hotmail.com GOOD LUCK!!
May 4, 2011? Why would you
May 4, 2011? Why would you upgrade to Pentium D this year? I mean, I upgraded from an Athlon XP 2800+ to the Pentium D the week it came out, and noticed giant gains everywhere. I still didn’t like the processor because it would overheat way too easily.
I bet you saw a performance dip in gaming. Pentium D can’t game worth a damn.
If you were looking for a cheap 775 processor, you really should’ve gotten an Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 1.86GHz. Those overclock to 3GHz easily. Even at stock speed, it’s still faster than the Pentium D 820’s 2.8 GHz at pretty much everything.
You should’ve known what you were getting into. Nobody buys these inferior processors except out of morbid curiosity.

Especialy if Your 3500+ is a Single Core,…What CPU is it?,..Athlon?,..Duron?,..etc…just curious.
