Advantages: Price, Speed, Ease of OC Disadvantages: Motherboard support
PLEASE NOTE - if you plan to buy this product, there are two versions, a 140W and a 125W version. In this review, i have the 125W model I bought this processor a while ago, to go in a cheap-ish gaming pc. Along with a 9800gt, and 4gb of ram, the computer flies, even with all graphics set to high in games. For the price - especially compared to Intel's Q6600 - this processor is immense. In the box, there's the processor, a standard heat-sink (cement ... ...This processor is like all the other AMDs, easy to install, but i had some difficulty attaching the heatsink.

Be careful make sure your motherboard supports am2+ or you may e around 60£ out of pocket. If gaming and graphic design is what you are looking for this will happily run all you high demand applications and will hardly even break a sweat. This is soo easy to install if you are creating a new pc, but is really simple to upgrade. the user manual is friendly and provides all the infomation you will need. A GREAT ALL ROUND PERORMER ...
