Review : Its good at a low price, but has no future.
My first attempt at building a pc. This cpu is fast it gets 7.2 on windows index. The problems I have had is that it did not state you needed a separate graphics card. Also FM1 socket has been replaced by FM2 so no upgrades in the future. But as a budget pc goes it is running well and i have had no problems playing games with my radeon hd 6670 gpu. Although if going for FM1 socket I recommend the a series A8 3870K (my only upgrade option). Remember there is no new upgrade for the fm1 socket as far as I know you cannot upgrade it for FM2 use. Its a dead end.
