Review on AMD Phenom II X4 940 πŸ’» Black Edition 3.0GHz AM2+ Processor - Retail by Mohammad Taufik ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not everything is so bad, the average purchase in quality.

It seems to work well in games, for example, in strategies, in dynamic games like Unreal, where 100 FPS is already low at the adept level, and at the god level, where the opponent moves up to 10 times per second, you won’t go far with such a memory controller. Maybe I'm wrong (: The architecture is old, it eats a lot: you need a power supply, cooling is more expensive, unprofitable. Maybe a very good memory will help. If you take it, then only with a subsequent move to a bulldozer.

Pros
  • Price, gaming performance. Good motherboards for an adequate price with support for 2100 RAM and higher, the ability to install a Buldozzer processor on such a mother in the future
Cons
  • Hot, there is a valve for 400 hryvnias, 33 degrees in idle, a poor memory controller, I have a CoreQard Q6600 on another machine that is already 5 years old, the same, and this xeon is even colder in overclocking.

Good percentage for the money, good overclocking potential.
