Review on 💻 AMD Athlon II X2 240e 2.8GHz Socket AM3 Dual-Core CPU, 2x1MB Cache by Ngo Quang Cuong  (Cn ᠌

In recent times, a contented owner of an AMD Athlon II x2 265 processor installed in an AM3 socket. Over the course of the upgrade, it was switched out for one that had six cores. With dual-channel memory and a graphics card, the GTS 450% was capable of providing comfortable gameplay in current titles until the middle of the 2022s, not to mention other chores that were less demanding; it ran a variety of CAD applications without any issues. Naturally, it has become more difficult to cope in recent years; after all, the absence of an L3 cache is felt to some degree. The stone was put to use for more than nine years. It is easy to comprehend why this would be the case given that a CPU free of defects should typically have a remarkable MTBF. At the moment, this is a low-cost dual-core on the secondary that can be purchased for a low-end computer on the element base of already-obsolete AM2+/AM3 sockets. Yet, paying respect to excellence is an honorable practice. If someone wishes to build a super-affordable personal computer that satisfies the very minimal standards of penny components, then perhaps a dual-core Athlon can still serve their needs for such a reason. In every other respect, it was a noteworthy stone during its era, which is now part of the past.
