Summary:The Phenom 9850 is another great CPU from AMD. This quad-core processor is the Black Edition and the multiplier is unlocked. from Mwave.com Pros: 1 Awsome CPU! Put 2 in Friends PC's. from Newegg.com Pros: Solid processor for the price, very competent overclocker with sb750 3.2 ghz with slight volt bump, runs everything I throw at it without a hiccup Cons: Phenom 2's are faster and higher ocers, Am3 isn't too much more expensive. Other Thoughts: This processor in my experience overclocks quite well 3.0 ghz with no voltage change, can hit 3.4 or higher with amd overdrive though through bios I have it stable at 1.36 volts at 3.2ghz. from Newegg.com so i shelled out the cash for this one, the website i had checked out insisted that my PC and this processor were compatible. that guys a moron. from Amazon.com Pros: I am a computational scientist and digital artist running Linux, and I abuse my hardware: I run all 4 cores for weeks at a time while also using the machine as my standard desktop. This CPU is a rock. from Newegg.com Pros: Quad core, speedy, easy to apply mild overclocking with stability. Expect ~2.9 Ghz before air cooled problems arise. from Newegg.com Pros: I game with this CPU and it works great. If you're on a budget, then this is a great CPU. from Newegg.com Pros: Runs great, plays GTA IV with modest settings at 3360x1050. Never had any heating issues and I'm using a standard case without any insanely huge fans or vents. from Newegg.com Pros: Overclocked to 2.8GHz by changing multiplier without any bump in CPU voltage. Cons: Stock heatsink and fan are inadequate for any overclocking. from Newegg.com Pros: AM2+ socket.. Quad Core.. from Newegg.com
