CPU for you!
I am using this CPU for gaming mostly and it can take a beating! Battlefield 3, Batman Arkham City, Modern Warfare 3... No problem for this processor... There are better CPUs out there but this is good enough for your average user.

Reviewed by Genesis III from JHB on 02/08/2011
| Expertise: | Enthusiast |
| Strengths: | Very Fast 8 MB L3 Cache Rivals the intel Hexa core CPU (Core i7-980x) in multi-threaded applications Runs Cool and you get 8 threads |
| Weaknesses: | Not that faster than the Core i5-2500 when it comes to the real world use since few application use more than 4 threads Not the best value for your money (Core i5-2500K offers better value for your money) |
| Best uses: | 3D and video encoding and decoding |
| Similar products used: | Core i5-2500 |
| I recommend also: | Core i5-2500K |
Best chip at this point in time
Definitely the fastest CPU you can get at the moment and you get performance that rivals the intel Hexa core CPU (Core i7-980x) in multi-threaded applications
