I tested a few games on my Phenom II X4 3.2Ghz:
- Need for Speed Carbon (2006) - only utilizes about 26% of 4 CPUs, so basically just one cpu. It stutters a bit on 2.2-2.4Ghz single core, needs probably 2.6-2.8Ghz single core. You will need the strongest s939 CPUs released.
- Test Drive Unlimited (2006) - only utilizes about 35% of 4 CPUs, so it can't fully utilize 2 cores. It will not run well on 2.2ghz dual core. Highway driving is very demanding in this game. On Phenom II I see drop to about 60 fps, so you can expect about 40 fps. You will need the strongest s939 X2 CPUs released.
- Microsoft Flight Simulator X (2006) - when set to ultra high quality, it seems to run at about 15-20 fps. It doesn't seem to benefit from more than 2 cores. I would recommend at least Phenom II X4 3.6-3.7Ghz for this due to clock speed. Your best bet these days is the Steam edition, supposedly a recompiled Gold + Acceleration pack. Currently costs 4.99€.
You will have a really hard time finding 2.6Ghz X2 Opteron CPU (OSA185DAA6CD) or FX-60 (ADAFX60DAA6CD) for s939.
