Pros: Fast and inexpensive. What more could you want? I upgraded from a A64 AM2 3800+ single core, and the difference is night and day.

Cons: None so far. The only thing that is odd is the fact my motherboard (MSI k9n ultra) reports the temp as 65C (!) Of course, this is more likely a BIOS issue.

Overall Review: Got the Rainbow six DVD game with this purchase, but wouldn't you know it? It will not work. The DVD seems to be bad and it keeps getting checksum errors, thats too bad because I was looking forward to playing it.
