Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

Of course, the percentage is now obsolete, but it still holds the performance bar, and the prices are attractive. Bulldozers disappointed with their specific performance, therefore, at the moment, the most productive amd-shnye processors (with the most productive cores separately) can be considered the hair dryer 2 family, to which this 955th belongs

Pros

Quad-core processor for less than 3000. (If now you take a boxless version, I took a boxed version in February 2022 at a price of about 5000.) Productive, with a free multiplier, enough for everything your heart desires (for now, enough). It goes without saying that the price-performance ratio is very good, there are simply no Intel 4-core CPUs at this price, and Intel CPUs with comparable performance will cost more. Overclocked without raising the voltage up to 3.8 GHz by raising the reference frequency and changing the multiplier, and even up to 4.0 GHz, by changing only the multiplier

Cons

Decent heating under load, and at rest not too cold, when compared with dual-core atlons for the am3 socket. Lower performance of CPU cores compared to intel cores i3, i5, i7 with a comparable operating frequency ("trouble" of AMD processors since 2022, after the release of oak bark). Non-guaranteed work with ddr3 memory with an operating frequency above 1333 MHz, for example. ddr3-1600
