i have always been an AMD Fan.. it seems to me they always deliver better products per dollar... AMD Phenom II X4 925 2.8 GHz processor is no different.. and this one was AM2+ compatible which was an easy upgrade path from my old Athlox X2 6000+ processor. there was no need to upgrade the motherboards or the RAM or anything. just plop it in and its good to go..... performance wise... its excellent.. it seems to run cooler than my old processor... its quiet.. AMD provides excellent overclocking software.. makes it easy for a novice to do so... all in all.. very happy with the purchase...
This is a pretty old and very well known processor. The sample I got can run stably at 3.3GHz, 1.375V, displaying slightly above 4000 in Passmark, on par with Intel Xeon E5440 and AMD A8-5500 APU without overclock. Single-threaded performance is not very impressive, but this was the general drawback of AMD architecture back then.

I have noticed a marked response time to downloading from the web and going thru my messages and mail. I am running Windows 7 64 bit operating system and this phenom processor seems to make it run quite a bit faster and smoother. The AMD Phenom II CPU is of excellent quality at a outstanding price.
The best upgrade for an old office PC.
