Benchmarks
System setup
Below is a partial set of AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ and Sempron 140 benchmarks from our CPU benchmark database. The former processor was tested on MSI K9A2 Platinum motherboard with 2GB dual-channel Corsair CM2X1024-6400C4 memory, and Powercolor 24PRO256M DDR2 (ATI Radeon HD2400). The latter processor was tested on ASRock M3A780GXH/128M motherboard, that had 2 GB dual-channel Corsair CM3X1024-1333C9 DDR3 memory, and Powercolor 24PRO256M DDR2 (ATI Radeon HD2400) graphics. For different system configurations please see tests of Athlon 64 X2 5000+ and Sempron 140 CPUs in our benchmark database.
All tests were performed at default frequency and voltage, using manufacturer's stock fan/heatsink. None of the components were overclocked. Motherboard BIOS options were left at default settings.
The results of all benchmarks are broken into four categories: multi-threaded, single-threaded, memory intensive and graphics / gaming.
Athlon 64 X2 5000+ vs Sempron 140 single-threaded benchmarks
Single-threaded benchmarks run on a single CPU core, and do not depend on such features as the number of cores, or Hyper-Threading technology. Additionally, they do not utilize on-chip caches, dedicated to other cores.

Athlon 64 X2 5000+ vs Sempron 140 multi-threaded benchmarks
Multi-threaded benchmarks utilize all CPU cores and other on-chip resources (on-chip caches, internal buffers, etc). Intel's Hyper-Threading feature also helps to improve multi-threading performance.

Athlon 64 X2 5000+ vs Sempron 140 graphics benchmarks
Graphics benchmarks depend on the type of integrated or discrete graphics adapter, and to less extent on the processor performance. Because these benchmarks are synthetic, they may not truly represent gaming performance. However, they still can used to estimate whether one processor will perform faster or slower in games than another CPU.

Athlon 64 X2 5000+ vs Sempron 140 memory performance
Memory-intensive tests or programs move large amounts of data to/from memory, and they depend more on memory throughput and the size of on-chip caches, rather than on CPU integer/FP/SIMD performance.
