Review on AMD FX-8320E FX-Series 8-Core Black Edition Processor by Micha Grt ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I play a little, I work a lot on a PC - this stone suits me perfectly, reviews praise this stone for working with calculations in software and scold it for not very high performance in games. Initially, I took an old good boxed cooler from DeepCool. Naturally, he could not cope with such a stove as Vishera. I bought a Thermalright Macho 120 Rev. A, smeared DeepCool z5 paste, in the AIDA64 stress test at stock frequencies a maximum of 51 degrees. Vishera - those are still stoves, think over blowing the case and cooling. ATTENTION! Paired with the MSI 970-g43 motherboard, this processor cannot be overclocked, it works normally only at stock frequencies, in overclocking the motherboard refuses to start at all, this mother works very badly with 125W processors. For the same price, it is better to take Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P from AM3 + ATX motherboards, everything is fine on it. Paired with the ThermalRight Macho Rev. A 120 and the above motherboard from GIGABYTE, it's a good combo. I don’t really need to squeeze the maximum during overclocking, I brought it to ~ 4.2k and it’s for my eyes. Therefore satisfied.

Pros
  • Powerful stone. Bought another at a price of 5500. Normal overclocking potential.
Cons
  • 125W, requires good cooling.
