Rating + 2 Go with Intel


Pros: While the processor lasted in my system, I would have rated it at least a 4, maybe even a 5. It is speedy, handled photo editing well and even did the video editing without problems. After 1.5 years, it just up and died. I didn't have any fancy overclocking going on and the temps never exceeded 41°C.

Cons: Died without warning after 1.5 years. I still have a Dell with an Intel running after 5 years of almost continuous use. RMA by AMD is going to take about 2 weeks if they "pass it on visual inspection." I want to tell them to keep the thing but I would have a heck of a time getting a new system together in time to finish my photo stuff and get all of my software re-installed.

Other Thoughts: I will be going back to Intel. If reliability is important to you, stick with Intel. I have yet to have a problem with any of my Intel systems.

Pros: I loved this processor, worked like a charm before my mobo died. I've ordered it's cousin the Dual core 4800+ that's .1ghz faster for my rebuild which i'm slowly saving the money for. AMD has always been fantastic :)

Cons: Can't use my old one!

Rating + 5 Great Value!


Pros: Great value and is a world of difference upgrading from an Athlon 1.4 oc'd to 1.8

Cons: I think it is the mobo combo and overclocking software, but it doesn't like to be overclocked with my ASUS A8N5X Socket 939.

Other Thoughts: On a side note the mobo automatically will control CPU performance based upon need.

Pros: This thing is my best friend, I've owned it for a little over a year now and it is FANTASTIC! Runs at about 25C idle in my PC, no more than low 50sC at full load.

Cons: It's 200 bucks cheaper now than when I bought it... :( But I guess that's good for you guys

Other Thoughts: AMD FOR LIFE!!! I think I'm gonna go buy an X2 now that they are cheap.

Pros: The chip is strong and only limited by ram for overclocking, i unfotrunately only got it to 2.7 stable due to my ram, I'm putting some OCZ in to get a little more out of it

Cons: CAME WITH BENT PINS, PAY ATTENTION NEWEGG!

Other Thoughts: took me like an hour to line it up cause of the pins, but even with bent pins this thing performs, a lot better than my 3200

Rating + 5 A real bargain.


Pros: Fast and cheap. The good cheap though, meaning I didn't have to break the bank to buy it. Runs great, heatsink with it looks good and performs well.

Cons: I could say socket 939s are on the way out but wasn't a real con for me. Just wanted something efficient and fast.

Other Thoughts: I game but not religiously. For what I play (Half Life 2, Counter Strike Source, Dungeon Siege 2) It does the job with a good video card.

Rating + 5 Nice Processor for the money


Pros: As always AMD makes flawless products. It works very nicely without needing to OC

Cons: My client wanted me to try and OC it to 2.8 but it had a problem going over 2.6 with the Fox**** mobo I installed it on.

Other Thoughts: I found the Athlon 3700 with the 1MB Cache2 to be a much faster processor. I prefer Opterons myself but some of my clients refuse to believe an Opteron can work for them. Duh!

Rating + 5 Great processor choice.


Pros: This does most everything that you'd expect a modern processor to do. Runs fast and stable. The included fan is fine.

Cons: This is a single-core processor. No dual execution, no hyperthreading (I'm not sure the latter even exists on AMD).

Other Thoughts: It's a nice, solid processor if you're not worried about joining the dual-core revolution.

Rating + 5 Fast + quiet.


Pros: Excellent price for the performance. I needed it for BF2 and it seemed like it'd be a good fit since I don't want to spend crazy dollars for a dual core AM2 system when all I do is play BF2. This thing helped to get me over that performance hill in BF2 that my old Athlon XP @ 2.4 ghz couldn't do. Coupled with a GF 7950 KO Superclocked, I'm seeing probably an average of 55 fps at 1024 x 768 with everything on high and AA off, the minimum I've seen while playing was 35 fps and the max I've seen was 120 fps. I know another gig of ram could easily add 10 fps to what I'm seeing now.

Cons: Really just depends on what you're doing. I don't see any because I don't do any multi-tasking stuff and I'm not sure that games are really using dual cores to their full advantage as it is. The temperature really means nothing to me since I'm not overclocking and if it works without crashing that's really all that matters to me. But in case anyone does care about that, I was seeing 91F with the stock heatsink.

Other Thoughts: Pretty much what I expected for BF2, the game basically runs as smooth as can be for me being limited to 1024 mb of ram at the moment. This processor was the centerpiece of a recently constructed budget-minded system soley dedicated to playing BF2, so my fps and wallet are both looking great.

Cons: 512KB L2 Cache?
but if ur a gamer like me i hear the the difference in FPS from 512KB and 1MB isn't much.

Other Thoughts: Hope on planing to reach 3.2Ghz ^_^

Rating + 5 Awsome of a low budget system


Pros: Ive had this proc for about 3 weeks now and its performing very well for the price. This was an upgrade for my AMD 64 3000+ and I can definitly tell the diffrence. Its very good at overclocking even with the stock heatsink/fan, mines running stable at 2.6Ghz.

Cons: None so far as I can tell, Its not the best processor but its damned good for a budget system.

Other Thoughts: I wish this thing cost $xx back in april when I built my new system [My 3000+ cost around 111.00]

Pros: If you just want to stick with Windows XP. Then you will be happy to have this CPU. Fast, quiet, and low temperature with original fan. For linux system, I have no problem to run live CD or to install. Overall, this CPU is not expensive wiht high performance.

Cons: not found yet

Other Thoughts: Beware! this CPU is socket 939. In other words, you don't have too much room to upgrade it with your old motherboard. However, I am not a big game player. I don't need the fast and the newest CPU at all. Moreover, will AM2 survive longer than 939? I don't know. socket 939 probably is still the most stable AMD system right now.

I can run BF2142 and CS on higher settings. If your into gaming and don't want to spend a lot of $$$ on the FX line or an AM2 build, this is the one. By the time you "need" to go with that stuff it will be a lot cheaper.

Cons: I've heard people say its "only single core"...then buy dual core if you need 14 processes running at the same time.

Rating + 5 Outstanding gaming processor


Pros: This thing is a champ. It runs cool and has been rock solid. Has more than enough horsepower for anything I have thrown at it. The fan is reasonably quiet even when the RPMs kick up under load. Much cheaper than the dual-core processors and uses less power, but runs just as fast in many games and other single-threaded applications.

Cons: The heatsink clip on mine was a bit difficult to get on and off. When I took my processor out to put it on a different motherboard I had to press down hard on the heatsink clip with my hand and use a screwdriver to pry one side off even after it was unlocked to be able to remove it.

AMD uses more than one heatsink clip design apparently. I installed another A64 3800+ in an identical retail box that I got from a local store recently and it had a slightly different heatsink clip mechanism that was very easy to attach and detach, so which one you get may vary and could be a luck-of-the-draw thing. It didn't matter much to me once everything was together and in place since I don't take it on and off in normal use.

Pros: It came in my Dads Hewlett Packard Pavilion A1330n, it is a wonderful performing processor. Once paired with the right specifications you can have a wonderful single-core gaming PC.

Cons: 512Kb cache decreases performance.

Rating + 5 cheap hi-end performance


Pros: Its cheap, its an amd, it's a venice core. Overclocking this thing is easy and it can go to a pretty stable 2.8 if you really want. but it's better to keep your fan speeds down and leave it where it's at b/c you still get great performance.

Cons: It's not free

Other Thoughts: This thing will humiliate any p4 that you can buy for the same price. my intel fanatic friend spent 25% more on a 3.2ghz p4. I still get better frame rates, and he's still mad.

Cons: i dont get my school work done now cuz i would usually do it while i was waiting for my old cpu to load my programs

Rating + 4 2.6 right out of the box


Pros: Cheap. Got it to 2.6 without really doing anything much. I would go further but all I have is cheap parts. Great for gaming, especially all the old games.

Cons: Single core in a multi-core world. I have a dual core 4400 in my primary box and I guess I’m spoiled but even though this cpu is clocked higher, it feels twice as slow when booting up and when trying to do a lot of tasks.

Other Thoughts: In retrospect, I should have gone with a cheap dual core instead. My logic was that this processor will only be used in a secondary/back-up/LAN-party gaming box; I thought that this would be sufficient. But every time I do something non-gaming I feel like this processor is having a hard time. Anyhow, its good for the money, but I would go dual-core instead.

Pros: These are great Processors, I have an Athlon64 3200 already and this 3800 was meant to replace it, so I could use the 32 in another system.

But the 3800 was DOA right out of the box! It would not Boot and would not POST, and this is on an Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe. I took the 3800 out and popped the 3200 back, and the system suddenly worked fine.

NewEgg gave a prompt RMA and I am shipping the chip back now for a full refund... I decided I'd rather put a Dual Core on that Asus now instead.

Cons: Chip arrived DOA.

Newegg should pay return shipping costs on DOA products.

Pros: Works a little faster than the Athlon 64 3200 that I replaced. Used my previous CPU fan and not the stock fan that came with this one.

Cons: None so far.

Rating + 5 Great CPU


Pros: Excellent CPU. Easy overclock. With stock cooling i have it overclocked to 3.0 Ghz 12*250=3000. WITH STOCK COOLING and no problems.

Cons: installing the stock heatsink was a little difficult but not too hard if you know what you are doing.

Other Thoughts: Price has gone down since i bought it for xxx bucks
