Review on High-Performance Phenom II X6 1045T 2.70 GHz Processor for Socket AM3 PGA-938 by Cameron Rosa

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great upgrade for older AM3 PCs with 95w TDP limit

I used this to upgrade our home server which was running an old Athlon II X2 dual core processor. Between our Plex server and the Rust server, this dual-core processor just couldn't keep up. I added a Wraith cooler and 16GB of RAM to this little one and suddenly we can stream Plex to two TVs while hosting two separate Minecraft servers and a Rust server for my friends with no issues. Being as old as this one is a monster processor and was a great purchase for our family home server.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Upgradeable
