Pros
Despite relatively old, this CPU is great for the price. It's still good enough to play modern games. It would be good for making a very inexpensive upgrade for AM3 capable motherboards.
It's power usage isn't that bad with C3 stepping.
It can be overclocked relatively easily.
|
Cons
This cpu is getting old, and does not work in the current line of AMD motherboards. If you want to invest in a good, newer motherboard, then this is not the CPU for you. This cpu is not as energy efficient as any comparable CPU's by intel, and so uses more power and creates more heat than other comparable CPUs.
|
Summary
Good as an upgrade for those with AM3 motherboards who currently have much slower CPU's (like dual core cpus or much slower athlon II cpus).
Still good enough to play modern games with a decent videocard.

Pros
Fast, cheap.
|
Cons
None really.
|
Summary
I've owned one or two of these myself, and used them in dozens of builds for customers. They have always been a value-based alternative to the faster Intel chips. They are great processors - I'd definitely suggest spending money on getting an SSD or upgraded video card before upgrading to a faster Intel chip.

Pros
Still rocking same as the day I got it
|
Cons
weak compared to todays processors, runs a bit hot on air.
|
Summary
Still rocking as day one, only complain it runs a bit hot on air, which tends to make the fans loud, but switching it with antec 920 solved the problem. Been 2 to 3 years since I got this CPU, and its still working like a charm.

Pros
Fan is quiet
Powerful enough even for though uses
Does not overheat
Multithreading works great
|
Cons
It was a pain to install the hardware
|
Summary
Great processor, and even better for the value. I was on a budget and chose AMD over Intel. I do not regret this decision. It was at 90$ in November 2012, less than half the price of a similar Intel CPU. Paired with my 1GB video card, it runs games very satisfactorily, albeit not at max graphics. However, it was a pain to get it to clip unto the motherboard. You must apply a lot of pressure (only use hands please!), I was worried it would break, but it didn't.
