Pros
  • fast speed
  • dual core is all you generally need these days - very few applications are written to take full advantage of any more
  • This processor is based off the k10 phenoms. It is actual a x4 with two cores turned off. You can there for OVERCLOCK this proc. faster than a quad core.
  • affordable price
Cons
  • high TDP - although fair, matches last generation while outperforming
  • requires an AM2+ motherboard, regular AM2 users might not be able to take full advantage of this chip

I use this processor in combination with a Gigabyte 965P-DQ6 (which i HIGHLY recommend), and 2GB of decent corsair memory, and I can easily push this cpu to 3.08 GHZ using mild aftermarket air cooling by simply adjusting the fsb and memory divider. Even at stock speeds, this processor dominates any other available offerings in the price range.
