HP said that an AMD 5000+ was the max cpu for this machine, but the 5200+ works like champ. It has 4 gigs of DDR2 memory, this is not a real gamer machine, but it handles Win 7 well. For the money, it is a nice easy, and do-able upgrade. I was tempted to go another step (5400+ or 5600+) higher, but I have a nice working back-up machine now, and jumping to the next level chip, may not work.

The cpu works like a charm. All the pins were straight and it was clean, even though it was not a new cpu. I ordered this cpu on a Sunday, they processed my order this next day and by Tuesday it was on the way to Hawaii. I got it a week later, which is par for the course for 1st class to Hawaii. It was well packaged, it installed into the socket without a hitch and works like a charm. I would have no reservations about dealing with Computerguy!! again.

Got the item very well packaged. Plugged into my computer and it worked. Run on game settings it was very hot, reached about 75-80C, and i thought of returning it. Then I realized, I only got a stock fan, so I bought a new fan, it ran on 55-65 C 100% load. so just make sure you have a good HSF when installing this.
I bought this to upgrade a 4gb memory mobo,it works great.i have a nice backup system now.

Great upgrade for my Compaq/HP computer and this is the upper limit that it will take on my motherboard. You must get a better heat-sink and fan for this CPU. It may run hot with a small slow fan and sink.
This inexpensive CPU upgrade for my 8 year old computer has given it a new lease on life. Thank you for helping me out daily_focus!
Wanted to upgrade and this was a good choice from others that I looked at. Needed to go from a single core to a dual core on a older broad which works great.
Excellent Dual-Core CPU from AMD. Upgraded my older single core Dell desktop, worked immediately. Desktop runs applications twice as fast!
