5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product, February 2, 2009

By	IrreverentMan (Near San Diego) - See all my reviews

This is my first AMD processor and I think it won't be my last. Set-up was a breeze and the price was right. I got a MSI motherboard (K9A2 Platinum AMD 790 chipset) and they seem to work good together.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good choice, March 3, 2009

By	Gilberto Ascencio (SS, El Salvador) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I choose this processors because it was cheaper option compared with Intel Core 2 Duo quad.

I've tested this with my new Asus M3N72-D MoBo and the performance is amazing, the temp is OK, not beyond of 42C, and I'm not tested it temperature with my new PW 850i LCS (liquid cooling system of thermaltake) yet!.

It was easy to install the processor itself and their heatsink and fan (including in this package)

I install Vista in only 35 minutes! compared with my older PC, this is awesome.

If you are looking for a good choice on cost/performance rate, then, buy this kind of processors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just Cool, July 12, 2008

By	Esteban A. Salas Bonilla "Drumsmasher" (SJO, CRI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The best performance on the market into an AM2+ Socket

I have nothing more to say. This is just cool. I run my computer with the extended monitor, in which I have a memory and CPU monitor tool.

When I play Crysis the CPU always keep under 25%. And when it loads it goes to 65%. It never goes to more tham that.

The only tool i used that almost used a 90% was 3ds Max. When i was preparing a short movie into the rendering mode it went to 88%.

As i told be4, there is nothing that can put this CPU over its knees.
