Product Description

The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor puts the power of dual-core technology on the desktop. Dual-core processors contain two processing cores, residing on one chip, that perform calculations on two streams of data, thereby increasing efficiency and speed while running multiple programs and the new generation of multi-threaded software. For user this means a significant increase in response and performance when running multiple applications simultaneously. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor outperforms the highest-performing AMD Athlon 64 4000+ single-core processor on multi-tasking benchmarks by up to 30%. Dual-core technology is like having two processors working together, each one taking care of different applications, so power-users actually experience greater performance when multiple applications are running. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor is designed for people who want to stay at the forefront of technology and for those who depend on their PCs to keep them connected, informed, and entertained. Systems based on AMD Athlon 64 processors are able to deliver leading-edge performance for demanding productivity and entertainment software today and in the future.

Deceptive description...........2007-06-08

I had to return this product because the information about it's socket type ( A2 vs. 939 ) was buried in the technical details. Most other ads on other sites say upfront what is the processor socket type.

Amazon sent the wrong CPU Twice.......2007-05-19

AMD makes a great CPU... but beware, if you order this item then Amazon will send a socket AM2 CPU and not a socket 939 CPU. It happened to me with the initial order and again with the replacement order.

Sweet.......2007-05-14

This processor is fast. It works quiet, in fact shhhh listen, hear anything on my end see quiet did i mention fast and sweet.
Yeah man I'm running PhotoShop Illustrator and Quark all a the same time and it's not even like it's being bothered. I had my bro over clock it a bit and it's still ticking. If you're planning on buying a Processor choose this one
It's worth every penny literally it's $99.99, lol

Great.......2007-05-07

This processor is perfect for me. I expected a little more out of it because it's a dual core but it still is a step up from what I had before. Also for a dual core it stays really cool with the help of Arctic Silver which I highly recommend.

Good!.......2007-01-09

I'm gamer but not extreme, with this I can play anything combined with other stuff of course. I made some O.C. and it runs perfect. I added a Zalman Fan Cooler to prevent overheating. Recomended!
