If you are on a budget and really a want a gaming pc or whatever, do NOT look away from these. this will be the best $90+ you will ever spend, and if you can get it cheaper you truly have won. it is a very,very reliable cpu. Phenom II is the sweet spot for quad cores in terms of price range and processing power

Just brilliant, Revives my old amd2 platform for another 2 years. Imust be really lucky, but instantly overclocked to 4.0ghz, with just a modest increase in voltage. I an old aftermarket cooler, roswell which was running with the old pc. Mistake, underload, the temps would rise past 65. so I spent the extra dollars and bought a huge noctua heatsink with a 140mm fan. The beast is now running at 4.0ghz, rock solid 24 hours prime95.

This is my first HTPC build. I found that with a tighter case the temps can get high (60 plus degrees). So the need for a aftermarket heat sink is a must. Other than that no issues, great performer does its job well. (Read More)

I bought this for my gf PC and I must say for an older chip it holds its own pretty well! Runs relatively cool and nice to have the unlocked multi. Games well with a cheap gtx 470 I picked up. Definitely can't complain, if your on a budget I would highly recommend this! (Read More)

On sale for $80. Paired with a 970A board and some DDR3 1600. OC'ed to 3.8 at 1.35v with a Hyper 212. A very capable system for under $200. It's no i7 but it's enough power for most people at a fraction of the cost. (Read More)

I've been using a AMD 945, and 965 in two of my machines for two years now. They are solid and can still handle what ever I throw at them. I bought this 955 to upgrade my media computer based on my experience with the 945 and 965.
