Bought an AMD Athlon II 440 3 GHz. Quite satisfied with the purchase. Inexpensive compared to Intel. Bought it without a cooler in the standard version. Installed a powerful cooler immediately as I overclocked it right away. There's plenty of information online on how to activate the 4th core. Did it without any problems, overclocking achieved about 30 percent more. CPU load is practically non-existent. It never froze or crashed. I think it's a good alternative for a cheap but productive processor compared to the insane prices of Intel. good price, has a DDR2 and DDR3 memory controller, can unlock the 4th core, overclocking capabilities are good. the only downside is it does not support third-level cache.  Andrew2010: use AMD Athlon II few months |
A good budget processor. I bought it quite a while ago and I'm happy with the purchase, no regrets. It came with a Cooler Master DK8-7G52C-A1-GP cooler. I can't say much about it, as I replaced it after a month since I decided to overclock. After overclocking and enabling 4 cores, the performance overall increased by about 30 percent. The only downside I can mention is that it lacks a third-level cache, but otherwise, it's a good processor for its price. Budget-friendly, inexpensive processor. Includes a Cooler Master DK8-7G52С-A1-GP cooler. It features an integrated memory controller that supports both DDR2 and DDR3 memory. Capability to activate the 4th core of the processor and quite decent overclocking potential. no third level cache. Darkness: use AMD Athlon II few months |
Before it was an Athlon 5000+ BE 2-core processor with a W7 rating of 6.0 and RAM rating of 5.5. Installation 640-W7-7.3, RAM-7.3 (no overclocking!) Must buy! Cold Not expensive In Windows 7 rating 7.3 No Skip: use AMD 640 week i recommend it should buy |
