OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Like the superheroes of old, the AMD Phenom II streaks out of the night to lay waste to your enemies with 2.8GHz quad cores that have L1 and L2 caches for each core, and 6MB of L3 cache to be shared to handle really heavy loads or large data sets.

Memory transfers get faster than ever. HyperTransport Generation 3.0 mode allows up to 16.0GB/s of bandwidth. Up to 17.1GB/s memory bandwidth for DDR2 delivers an amazing total of 37GB/s of processor-to-system bandwidth. This unprecedented bandwidth is needed to feed the data hungry AMD64 with Direct Connect Architecture cores.

You'd think that all of this power would be too hot to handle. Think again. AMD's Cool'n'Quiet 3.0 technology works with CoolCore Technology to minimize heat while keeping power and efficiency up. Now the cores can shut down unused parts of the processor when not in use. This saves power and helps to reduce the amount of heat generated. This function is built in so there's no need for drivers or BIOS updates.

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day
Pros: 45nm 6m L3 3Ghz
Cons: a little bit high price than expected
Other Thoughts: Think about the future
AM3 is still supported by AM AM2+
That is why Phenom II X4 940 is better than any other
LGA775 plaform As long as Phenom II X4 940 is cheaper than LGA775 such as Q9650 which is 549.99 since the phenom IIX4 940 is better performed than Q9650
