AMD Sempron 3000+(AM2)(1.6GHz)
Review of AMD Sempron 3000+ / 1.6 GHz processor by
DrDivvi
Advantages: Incredibly cheap, reliable CPU
Disadvantages: FSB+Cache could be better
...life much easier when the AMD X2 prices come down in the future, if you are planning to upgrade.
Although the FSB and cache aren't amazing, it wouldn't really be a cheap processor if they were, so I can't really complain about that.
If you're looking for a cheap, reliable CPU. Wether you're on a budget, or want something until the X2 prices come down, a Sempron is a recommended buy. ...

The last Amd Mohican
Review of AMD Sempron 3600+ / 2 GHz processor by
neo1983
Advantages: Very cheap, extremely low power consuption, can be used with fanless cooler
Disadvantages: Poor performance compared with today multi core processors
Well what can I say, single core processor, I used to have something like this not so long ago, a good processor then but now a new era of processors had arrived, the dual core and quad core processors. Nevertheless the processor has it's own and unique advantages and disadvantages:
The good stuff:
Still not many multi thread aplications that the processor deals pretty well
Magnificent power consumption, only 30-35 watt on full load, and 5-6 watt ... ...fan less cooler for a silent and energy efficient computer
So cheap
The not so good stuff:
Modest performance in single threaded aplications
Poor performance in multi threaded aplications Say goodbye to HD movies (although some video cards can decode HD movies, but why risk: ) and future applications
Modest over clocking on low cost motherboards, only 300-500 Mhz
Conclusion: recommended for silent and energy efficient office computers ...

Nice one
Review of AMD Athlon 64 3000+ / 1.8 GHz processor by
dav987
Advantages: Pretty cheap, fast, very cool therefore overclockable
Disadvantages: none whatsoever
It's an amd, it says its a 64 bit athlon 3000+ but what does this mean in plain english!
Well first of all it is 64-bit which basically means that it is compatible with 64-bit operating systems and programs which is not necessary at the moment but in the future it will be.
Secondly, the name suggests the clock speed is 3.0GHz but it is actually clocked at 1.8GHz. The reason it is called a 3000+ is because that is the relative performance output, ... ...than say an athlon xp 1.8GHz, hence the name.
I have had one of these since January, i have had no problems with it at all, it is a lot cooler than the old athlons, mainly due to the new transistor size being 90nm rather than the old 130nm.
All in all a very good, relatively cheap INVESTMENT into a socket 939 system that will leave you with plenty of scope for future upgrades. ...

Run stable and quiet.
Review of AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ / 2.2 GHz processor by
pchenn
Advantages: Stable Temperature.
Disadvantages: -
...XP SP2. I like this AMD processor because have dual core system and more faster than Intel Pentium Core Duo 2.2Ghz. I use ECS GeForce6100PM-M2 mainboard, DDR2 1Ghz, onboard VGA sharing up to 512MB. Then I try run The Sims game and wow.... I don't believe it, run stable and quick load when play. I can play NBA Live 2007 game too without using PCI-E VGA card. This AMD processor very quiet and the temperature is always stable. I try it all using original ...

E6750 - The midrange cpu to buy
Review of Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 / 2.66 GHz processor by
RRD313
Advantages: fairly good price, dual core, 2.66 ghz, 4m L2 cache
Disadvantages: fan is somewhat hard to install
This E6750 is the processor running in my computer as I write this review. In my opinion I couldn't have chosen a better CPU for what I was looking for. I was looking to spend around 200 USD for a processor and I wanted it to be very powerful so that I could run demanding programs and all of the most recent games. This processor combined with my 8800 gts 320md graphics card put on a show when it comes to graphics displays. I have yet to be disappointed ...
