First CPU upgrade in six years
01/04/2014
This review is from: AMD FX-8320 - FX-8000 Series Vishera 8-Core 3.5 GHz (4.0 GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W Desktop Processor - FD8320FRHKBOX
Pros:
8 cores, man. 8 cores, and all for $130 ('twas on sale). The kind of graphics/3D/video work I do benefits a lot from the extra cores.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge upgrade from my old core 2 quad q6600 2.4GHz. Of course, considering my last processor was so old, I don't really have anything to compare it to in terms of modern processers. But for me, this CPU is perfect. I'm also planning on buying the Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO and overclocking it, but that's for another time.
Cons:
None thus far, though I've only had it for a day.
