As I researched processors, this one stood out for the price/performance ratio. If you're looking to build a computer with a reasonable budget and performance that will fit average needs for the next several years, this is the processor to get. Stepping down to a dual core will only save you $15-25, and stepping up to other quad cores or 6-cores will cost you a premium compared to the performance gain (which you probably won't even notice for most home-user tasks). While benchmarks don't tell everything, they can at least give you a general idea of where a processor rates compared to others on the market. Compared to others in the $85-$110 range, this one seemed to stand out because: *It's a Phenom II AM3 socket vs. an Athlon2 or a Phenom II Dual core *It's Quad Core vs. Dual core *It's lower wattage than comparable Quad-cores in this price range *To step down to a dual core didn't...

The CPU was always running hot and just never seemed to run right. I ended up using this CPU with a nForce MSI NF750-G55. This CPU is only 95 watts so it runs cool and quiet. There is no L3 Cache, but at 3.2 Ghz, it doesn't seem to make a difference compared to the older 9850 at 2.5 Ghz. The lack of L3 cache shows it is basically a faster Athlon X4, but they still call it a Phenom. Its been up for several weeks with zero problems. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: Excellent processor, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: AMD Phenom II X4 840 Edition Deneb 3.2 GHz 4x512 KB L2 Cache Socket AM3 95W Quad-Core Processor - Retail HDX840WFGMBOX (Black) (Personal Computers) Needed something that would fit the limitations of my motherboard AM2+ 95W. This fit the bill and has worked flawlessly. It comes with OEM fan which I did not use, preferring my much more robust aftermarket cooling. Good bang for the buck. |
