Since the CPU score in PCMark05 took into account the performance of all the cores, the quad-core Athlon II X4 CPUs were deservedly ahead of most of the other processors here. The Intel quad-core processor's relatively low clock (2.33GHz) is probably holding it back. When it came to the memory segment however, the Phenom II X2 series were back on top. It's quite likely that their high clock speeds and huge cache helped them in this test.
