Review on πŸ’» AMD Athlon II X2 240e 2.8GHz Socket AM3 Dual-Core CPU, 2x1MB Cache by Kio Kun ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

Bought as a replacement for a 5 year old Sempron 3000+ (1.6 GHz, AM2, Manila). After ating the BIOS, it started up without problems, and given that I rarely play games, the processor's performance is quite enough, Autocad and video encoding to mp4 under Nokia 5800 work with a bang. True, when converting, the percent was not loaded at 100%, perhaps the hard drive became the bottleneck. AMD's next stop is the Buldozer generation, with DDR4 =)

Pros
  • - Dual-core percent; - Low price; - Temperature under load with a boxed cooler 31C!; - Possibility of installation in boards with connector AM2, AM2+.
Cons
  • - Performance corresponding to the price.
