The best thing for the money, I'm glad I chose this option.

Bought this in mid-January. On the MSI 880GM-E41 motherboard, it immediately unlocked the 4th core and 6Mb L3 cache. CACYC marking, issue - week 40, 2022 (!), times when the fourth core was not broken on almost all Athlon II X3 425. It was funny in 2022 to buy a processor from a batch of 2022. Quietly passes three-hour tests under OCCT and Prime, the fourth core is absolutely stable. Under the cooler TITAN DC-K8M925B/R heated up to a maximum of 53 degrees. In Windows 7, the performance score after unlocking is 7.2 out of a possible 7.9.

Pros

Low cost, 3 cores, unlockable 4th core and L3 cache

Cons

They are not here!

Pros below: Everything suits! The 4th core was immediately unlocked, now it has become AMD Phenom II X4 B50! Cons below: They are not here! I do not have a multiprocessor system and not a server, which means that the presence of the L3 cache is absolutely not important !
