Advance micro device AMD Athlon X4 870K Black Edition with Thermal Solution 3.9 4 Socket FM2+ AD870KXBJCSBX

It was in a neat little envelope which came like a normal mail directly to my mailbox, which is quite unusual here. Retailers usually send normal packages. But everything works and the delivery was quite fast and free!The CPU replaced an old 2-core CPU which really needed to be trown out. This one does what it's supposed to do without complaints and quickly. Additional cores bring more parallelism and pretty much brought my computer to the modern era. The CPU also enabled me to up the clock of DDR3 to 2400 GHz! As FM2+ CPU it also brings PCIe 3.0 for a new graphics card. This is just great.

You could tell from the surface that it was slightly used but after installed it worked and performed just like a new one

It's a good budget processor

good fast processor

I've been buying AMD processors since 1993 and they have always come with an AMD cooler. The one I received today had a Cooler Master cooler and the fan on it was small and loose! It doesn't look like it will last let alone properly cool the CPU. It actually looks kind of cheap as well. I wasn't looking to get a bad boy cooler by no means, but I was expecting to get a cooler that was made by AMD for this CPU I bought. My AMD Athlon X4 880K came with a near quiet cooler which is about 50% larger than the one I got today. I don't overclock, so I don't need anything like that. Anyway, It looks like I'm going to have to drop more money just to get a better CPU cooler that should have been supplied to me in the first place.

Wrong securing style and chip must have had a bent pin, would not fall into place.

great for a budget build runs fine supports most games

Best cheap cpu hands down, blows an Intel pent outta the water!
