Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

I took it for $ 25 in 2022 - in 2022 the price has not changed.
The CPU was installed along with a very good tower cooler (too good for this CPU, as a result, the temperature in Everest showed 21 g in idle 30-35 in games.
After looking through YouTube for a couple of minutes, I found a video about unlocking 4 cores with a half kick and unlocked the 4 core the first time - the temperature immediately jumped in idle time to 27-28 gr. up to 45 gr and tightly froze at this mark.
I repeat this on a very good air cooling (taken for silence)
Summarizing everything, I can say that this stone is gorgeous for its price even without unlocking 4 cores, and with unlocking it, in principle, even simple video editing will pull (together with an SSD, of course. Based on it, you can assemble a new PC for $ 150, which will be in office and multimedia tasks fly. Lovers of modern toys DO NOT TAKE. but if you are a fan of CS dotka, I think you can play in comfort

Pros

1 cheap one for 2022 cost $25 (Belarus) 2 not hot with good cooling 3 Unlocked and stable 4 core 4 paired with ssd turns out to be a powerful office machine 4 with an inexpensive video card (730) in principle pulls simple games of 15 years Pes15 on ultras

Cons

This is of course redneck, but the level 3 cache was not unlocked)) Although it would be too good because all 4 cores work perfectly degree by degree. To be frank, this percentage is worth every buck invested. The real minus is that this percentage is already with old instructions (carefully study the characteristics if you have specific tasks. For an ordinary PC user, this is imperceptible (you can decorate a Christmas tree in FB with great comfort))))
