Processor Runs Smooth & Stable

Pros: As a dual core handles Win XP 32 bit & Win 7 64 bit applications with ease using 3 gigs ddr2 800 Mhz. Turned on 3rd core, ran all day & played DVD movies & runs stable. Dont want to be greedy, so will wait before i try to turn on 4th core. Win 7 CPU index 6.5
Cons: Must wrap & pack CPU in center of brown paper wrapping otherwise it falls to to bottom of box & may get damaged!!! It seems that person puts CPU at bottom of box and then places brown paper wrapping on top of it.
Overall Review: Using Gigabyte GA_MA74GM-S2 board. ACC settings: Hybrid, Auto, Manual & turned on first 3 cores with 4th core disabled. In device manager for XP and Win 7: 3 cores listed as Phenom 2 X4 B45.
Radeon 4350 Failed

Pros: Low profile, not bulky, quiet fan good response while it worked under Win XP and Win 7 ultimate. Would buy again for price and performance.
Cons: Died (no signal/video) 2 days after Newegg return policy expired. Now will have to deal with manufacturer for a replacement.
Overall Review: Good thing that my motherboard has onboard video that i can use until i get a replacement. Read up on realibility before you buy!
great buy at afford price

Pros: great buy
Overall Review: would buy again, great price for an 8 core
awesome

Pros: Works in Gigabyte B450 board, ran a 2 hour burn in test with no problems, and temp was low. Seems perfect for casual computing and good for a budget build.
Cons: wish AMD would include a CPU fans with clips.
Overall Review: Would buy for a budget build saving the cost of a separate graphic card.
Plug and play

Pros: Colorful memory stick, worked right out of the box-Asus B550 and Asrock B550 boards
Overall Review: great price and fast shipping, used mainly to test open box motherboards
Excellent Board

Pros: EZ to setup and great features
Cons: Motherboard male 3.0 usb connection pins are horizontal and not vertical so u cannot see if you have lined up the female pins correctly. Have purchased a 45% connector to try and solve the problem, if it does not work I will HAVE TO RETURN OR EXCHANGE THE BOARD!
Overall Review: Well packaged with user manual and great website support.
Perfect for budget build
Great 6 core processor, highly recommended for budget build for home and office use with light gaming.
nice and compact.
Great price and performance features
good buy
made of elastic therefore has a snug fit and easy breathing through vents; my glasses do not cloud up.
