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

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

When I originally put the system together, I wasn't sure why the motherboard with the CPU wouldn't boot, but after reading the forum, I realized that I needed to upgrade the BIOS to the F5 version since it supports the Kaveri kernel, which is not present in the F4 version. It impressed me that the processor only reaches a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius when there are no thermostats present and the Athlon 5600+ color scheme is used. The most pleasant thing is that the AM2 and FM2 are fully compatible with the cooling system, so I don't need to buy a new cooler; my old Cooler Master evo 212 works just fine. Thermaltake BigTyp 120 was also purchased in the commission for $400.

Pros
  • Price: Content, paid 3700 r
Cons
  • Without a bios update to version F5, the f2a88x-d3h motherboard won't boot. There was very little tambourine dancing, and everything worked.
