Amd triple core black edition

I haven't driven this chip hard, and will not push any other settings until I see how stable this is, but am very pleased for the moment. I did read that Biostar boards are better at this than other brands. Overall Review: Should play very nicely with Skyrim - that was the reason for the upgrade.

Not state of the art, but then I've always spent around a hundred for video cards and usually get decent perf. The X3 was probably overkill, but I'm so pleased with it, I wish I had done it the first time.

The chip uses AMD's cool and Quiet technology which throttles back the processor when it's at idle or under low load -saves electricity and keeps heat to a minimum. Sold by: Newegg Shipped by Newegg.

Overall Review: Will be attempting to unlock the 4th core with another mobo that I will purchase for a separate build. That will be fun to try and see how it performs, especially OC'd when compared to stock. Sold by: Newegg Shipped by Newegg. This item is currently out of stock and it may or may not be restocked.

The HyperTransport Technology can provide up to Energy efficiency is important to AMD, allowing you to enjoy a cool, quiet PC while saving energy and reducing heat, noise and the effect of your computer on the environment.

These technologies reduce power consumption and processor activity. You can run virtual environments on one system with ease, allowing you to use legacy programs on a separate operating system. Add the convenience and power of multi-core processing and enjoy the benefits of energy efficiency with a 2. With Triple-Core technology, three complete processor cores on a single die run at the same frequency to deliver exceptional multi-tasking power, allowing users to surge through the most demanding processing loads, including advanced multitasking, critical business productivity, complicated visual design and modeling, serious gaming, and visually stunning digital media and entertainment.

The integrated memory controller changes the way the processor accesses main memory, resulting in increased bandwidth, reduced memory latencies, and enhanced processor performance. HyperTransport Technology HyperTransport Technology HT or HTT is a high-speed, low latency, point-to-point link designed to increase communication speeds between integrated circuits in computers, servers, embedded systems, and networking and telecommunications equipment.

With HT 3. AMD Cool'n'Quiet 2. AMD Virtualization can enable client computers to seamlessly support multiple operating environments. And it also helps make it easier for PC enthusiasts to upgrade and maintain their PCs through emulation. Power can be switched on or off within a single clock cycle so that energy is saved without compromising performance.
