Compatibility
Information on V-Series V120 and Core 2 Duo T5270 compatibility with other computer components: motherboard (look for socket type), power supply unit (look for power consumption) etc. Useful when planning a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. Note that power consumption of some processors can well exceed their nominal TDP, even without overclocking. Some can even double their declared thermals given that the motherboard allows to tune the CPU power parameters.

Synthetic benchmark performance
Various benchmark results of the processors in comparison. Overall score is measured in points in 0-100 range, higher is better.
Combined synthetic benchmark score
This is our combined benchmark performance rating.
Cinebench 10 32-bit single-core
Cinebench R10 is an ancient ray tracing benchmark for processors by Maxon, authors of Cinema 4D. Its single core version uses just one CPU thread to render a futuristic looking motorcycle.
Cinebench 10 32-bit multi-core
Cinebench Release 10 Multi Core is a variant of Cinebench R10 using all the processor threads. Possible number of threads is limited by 16 in this version.
wPrime 32
wPrime 32M is a math multi-thread processor test, which calculates square roots of first 32 million integer numbers. Its result is measured in seconds, so that the less is benchmark result, the faster the processor.
Pros & cons summary
| Recency | 12 May 2010 | 1 October 2008 |
| Physical cores | 1 | 2 |
| Threads | 1 | 2 |
| Chip lithography | 45 nm | 65 nm |
| Power consumption (TDP) | 25 Watt | 35 Watt |
V-Series V120 has an age advantage of 1 year, a 44.4% more advanced lithography process, and 40% lower power consumption.
Core 2 Duo T5270, on the other hand, has 100% more physical cores and 100% more threads.
Given the minimal performance differences, no clear winner can be declared between AMD V-Series V120 and Intel Core 2 Duo T5270.
