Review on πŸ’ͺ AMD FD6300WMHKBOX FX-6300 Black Edition: 6-Core Processor with Unparalleled Performance by Girish Underwood

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very satisfied, especially for the price.

The move from 2 to 6 cores (with the option of 8) is a significant upgrade and very noticeable. I definitely appreciate the fact that there was a lot of thermal paste on the device. That made the fact that the other one I received (FX 4 Core 4300 Black Edition) had very little thermal paste that was already dry a little more bearable. Yes, I purchased the above items within a month. I haven't returned the other one yet, but will do so again soon. Also, as an added bonus, I paid $5 less for it than the 4-core. I think time has forced him to lower the price. One more day until Black Friday and so on. The FX-6300 is very good and fast. My computer went from 4.0 to 7.9 because of this processor and other components. If only my graphics card was connected. In any case, this is a very good processor that can be talked about without any problems. I ordered Turkey Day for Saturday delivery and Fed Ex said it would be here by 1pm even though it showed up around 11:30pm so I was thrilled. Honestly, the rating is much lower than 7.9, but that's only due to my HD and lack of graphics card, so I think it's fair to conclude that the processor is 7.9. When I have my computer ready I will detail my findings.
