Review on Refurbished AMD Athlon Quad-Core X4 860K 3.7GHz Edition FM2+ 95W 4MB CPU Processor by Kiril Serdarev ᠌

As a cost-effective measure (a present for NG), I withdrew 750K to buy a new one. According to the increased clock frequency of the bus, the Win7 rating has increased from 7.2 to 7.4 (both in terms of processor and memory). Transfer rates to and from the SSD remain constant at 7.7 MB/s, but radeon 7770 graphics performance increases from 7.5 to 7.6 MB/s on the aero table and from 7.5 to 7.6 MB/s on the 3D test. The improvement is barely perceptible in tanks, but it is there (from 40 to 60 frames per second with mods). The processor, which has more legs than usual, required a slight, inconsistent amount of effort to place into its underdeveloped socket. Ahead of schedule bios update; using an obsolete CPU. The CPU temperature increased from 37 to 41 degrees (while using the same cooler).
