Comment: Impressive quad-core performance for the price of the Athlon II X4 improves with clock bump.

Comment: The Athlon-II X4-640, with its 45nm process and somewhat low TDP of 95W, is an excellent overclocker

Comment: The clock increase from previous models in the same series returns very predictable benchmarking results.

Comment: The II X4 640 performs well,considering its affordable price point. Generally speaking, the Athlon II X4 640 processor was outpaced by Intel's latest dual-core, the Core i5-661, but AMD's new offering is significantly less expensive.

Threw this into an old Asus M3N78-VM motherboard after updating the bios to support it. It replaced a Athlon 64 X2 5200+ in a HTPC that had some new life put into it with a new SSD boot drive and video card and is working like a charm. It feels like a whole new machine!

Bought this on sale for $59. I was able to unlock the hidden 6 MB cache, making it a Deneb. I was also able to overclock it to 3.75 GHz, which was a bonus. Could've easily overclocked it to 4.0+ GHz if I put in a Hyper 212 Plus/Evo after market cooler. Using it mostly for gaming, surfing, email, and even school work. Just love it. It's the best bang for the buck value. Definitely recommend it. (Read More)

Pretty good cpu for a budget build with Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 970A motherboard bundle.

Picked this up on sale for $99 for a budget build, its a quad core for only $99 you really can not go wrong with that price-performance it does pack a good punch with some small oc tweaks. Handles 1080p play back and could play battlefield 3 on med with good FPS. Would recommend to people who are on a budget. (Read More)
