Obviously it wasn't tested before it was sent to me. It still had heat sink on it from the last install that was done to it(dried and caked on, suggesting it over heated at one point hence why it was a parts computer).

Since a major computer update is astronomical in costs, took my old asus m2n-sli deluxe and upgraded CPU from 4800 w/1gb memory and increased efficiency with a 6000 2gb duel core chip. That plus maxing motherboard memory has given my computer a few more years of productivity, and me time to save for major upgrade to a 6-8 core chip system.

If you have an older AMD Socket AM2 PC, say of the Windows Vista or early Windows 7 era and you want to upgrade the Athlon 64 x2 series processor - this is as fast as they go. Now you do need to make sure the power supply and motherboard will support this 125 thermal power design Windsor version as many systems are limited to the more costly 89 TPD version. For me, this works well in my trusty old Dell Inspiron 531 that I purchased new in 2007 and has helped keep it in service just a little longer running Windows 7. Will it make your vintage PC a gaming monster? Of course not. But it will keep it up to the performance of entry level new PCs provided RAM is also up to modern needs.

It gave my old machine a very needed boost. Excellent way to enliven an older machine. I installed this wihin 10 minutes, and it was a breeze... and works magnificently.

For the older AMD AM-2 motherboards this is the best chip you get short of the rare, power-hungry 6400+. It really is on par with the newer Regor chips from AMD, except that they use fewer watts, make less heat on a smaller die. I upgraded an older system (had an AMD Athlon x2-4200) for my son. Now games are playable again. He's playing Civ 5 and Skyrim on this system combined with a Nvidia 9800GT-OC with high settings (not ultimate settings) with great fps. I gave it 4/5 because it is old technology but that's why I got it on Ebay to extend the life of our PC. For this use, it is 5/5.
The computer is a Dell Inspirion 531s from 2008. I bought this chip to replace an AMD Sempron single core 2.1GHz processor. I put this chip in after updating the BIOS. I noticed the speed immediately. I'm Using Windows 7 Professional the web pages load fast and most importantly YouTube loads fast. Video playback has improved so much. I also put in a new/used GPU, ATI Radeon 2400XT 256MB. I added 2GB single memory card for a total of 4GB. I can now play Street Fighter IV that I bought in 2009!! Talk about an upgrade for under $50.00. I saved myself several hundred dollars from buying a new PC for at least a few more years.

AMD Athlon perform well. Hope will be O.K. for a long time. Thank you for your cooperation. Kind Regards Miomir. S.

I think I previously had the 4000+ pre installed. To help performance, I got the 6000+ which helps. This is for my son’s pc which he mostly plays Roblox on and sometimes other apps. The CPU upgrade does help with loading pages a bit faster and allows the games to lag less

Easily installed, and inexpensive due to being an older model. My computer is operating faster and is stable.
