I have recently built a server system, I got hold of two of these for a client, he was creating a 2 Server Network hub for his business.

I married this up with 8GB of ram in both servers, 2 Gigabyte Motherboards, and 1Terabyte Hard Disk Drives in both computers.

All i can say is: Amazing.

The system ran faster than anything i have ever seen. the 3 GHz Quad means you have 750MHz in 4 cores, using any combination of these 4 (Via Windows Task Manager Affinity) can create a powerful system that can run a HUGE amount of simulatenous computational tasks, and you will still have left over CPU time to do background tasks, like virus scans!

Just make sure you have the equipment to handle the power this processor needs, it uses 125 Watts when running at 100%.

Further, if you can get hold the AMD PIB (Processor In Box) version, it comes with everything you need to install it, IE Fan etc.

Verdict: Phenom really is Phenomenal.
