Overall Review:
The only gripe I have is the heatsink. I understand the processor is lower in cost but I bought an FX-4100(same price as this 6300) last year February and it came with a copper core heatsink... this heatsink with the processor is just a block and thats it. Fan didn't even have an AMD sticker on it :(. I understand cutting costs to keep the prices a little lower but really... I think this heatsink could have performed better had it had a copper core like the FX-4100 had come with. I dropped the copper core one in (before installing my water block) and saw a 6c degree drop over the solid block one that came with it :-/
