What People Say

Ive had this cpu in my pc since last november , it still hasnt given one bit of trouble. runs pretty cool from what ive seen and it can handle most apps and games well for its speed (mine is at the default 2.1gHz). its a great cpu for its price range. from Tigerdirect.com I love this processor i bought to replace my 3800+ dual core (939)it just as fast and with my new mobo i got it over clocked to 2.5ghz with a stock heat sink. its a good bang for your buck but i cant wait to get my hands on a amd quad core. from Tigerdirect.com this is a great processor for little money I highly recommend this CPU .... from Tigerdirect.com Summary: This CPU is awesome. Overclocking is easy. I overclocked it from 2.1 to a 2.4GHz, and plan to overclock it even further. The fan is nice and quiet. from Mwave.com This is the best dual core cpu ever used , tell you the truth it's even better than intel C2D @ 2.13Ghz that I used before this, for me this cpu load Collin Mcrea: Dirt better and faster, my favourite racing game. I use this cpu with 2GB dual channel crucial ballistic 800Mhz with geforce 8600GT XXX edition, I'm very happy with this AMD cpu from Tigerdirect.com Summary: This is an excellent processor for your medium build computer that you plan to surf the internet, do light gaming or use in an HTPC. With all of the recent offerings from Intel, you'll want to try them for a really heavy duty system, but otherwise, these chips will do just fine. Get yourself a decent after market fan from Cooler Master or Thermaltake and you'll be able to run this processor at 2.4 to 2.6 ghz with no problem at all. And you can do all this with reasonable efficiency. Good three year warranty and dual core technology to boot. You can't beat this processor for a good, all around machine with extra ability if you want to tweak it. I'd rate it a great buy! from Mwave.com Summary: It gives you a good performance with significantly less money compared to Intel chips. You will get more if you like overlocking. It uses 65nm Brisbane technology so it consumes less power and runs cooler. I have it running in one of my computers all the time and have not noticed a single issue with it. So far I am very happy with the purchase. Highly recommended if you are looking for an upgrade with a small budget. from Mwave.com Great Processor. It's not the fastest but trust me it can definately multitask well. All programs run smoothly on XP-Pro-SP2. from Tigerdirect.com Summary: Easy installation, huge improvement over my old athlon 2000+ processor from back in 2000. The CPU runs cool with the retail fan, but I would recommend a new cooler master that you can pick up for cheap to knock off another 5 degrees. Excellent performance combined with the Corsair 2 GB kit. Now I can finally run Windows Vista :-)!!! from Mwave.com Love dual core. This is my second dual core machine, and I go for AMD because of the price, and its definitely better than Pentium D dual core. Not as good as Core 2, but still great for 70 bucks! from Tigerdirect.com
