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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

I collected a system unit from scratch for a long time deciding what to take because the budget was not rubber, I wanted the maximum gaming for less money with a reserve for the future. Since it is expensive to assemble on the basis of Intel, the choice fell on this percentage. This processor is quite modern and overclocking is possible. I wanted to overclock about 4.5-4.7 GHz. but it turned out not to be so simple as a result, after a week of tests and various manipulations, not only with the processor, I received a stable frequency of 4.5 GHz. a good result against the background of the standard 4.0 GHz with turbo boost, while the FPS rose by 15-19 units, it is definitely necessary to overclock the whole system, it will work much faster and do not forget about cooling. I hope that under this socket they will create a new pproc with the letter K. something more powerful, otherwise it will be a disaster, since it’s a pity to change the mother, I wanted to take it better. Main components: Motherboard: ASUS A88X-GAMER RAM: Kingston HX324C11SRK2/8 Cooling: Deepcool GAMMAXX S40
