I came from an A8-3820 and wanted something stronger. The A8-3850 pretty much did the job and didn't break the bank. I could see a difference between the two cpu. I thought about the A8-3870k, but from the reviews, it wasn't worth it. Despite being used, it works and in really great condition. If you plan on upgrading your fm1socket type cpu, the A-8 3850 is the best bang for the buck.

Processor does not sit flat on its socket. Some pins might be bend. I did not install it.

Not a powerhouse but highest possible upgrade for my older consumer grade HP Pavillion Desktop. added 8 GB ram as well and has a noticeable improvement. My kid even benefits from the less lagging of her online games.

Some of the pins came bent, but that was a simple fix. Other than that, works like a charm! Performs reasonably well for the price. It can even play some (very) light games, run emulators, and perfect 1080p YouTube playback. Fantastic little guy.

This upgrade enhanced the speed of this older machine to bring it more in line with the current requirements for online education as well as some games.

I purchased this 4 core processor to replace a 2 core low end processor in a SageTV media server. The 2 core processor worked about half the time with 1080P recorded video. It often shuddered on playback and attempting to run MCEBuddy at the same time was impossible. Then came this little jewel. Now I can record a show, while MCEBuddy is re-codeing 1080P shows and have processor to spare. MCEBuddy is running constantly removing commercials and making 6-15 GB recordings to recordings of less than 1 GB I am really impressed with this little processor and the way it functions. You got to get one of these, and they only take about 15 minutes to replace.

This is a great product that I would only recommend for an office. The product performs well, when it comes to some games the the processor lacks the extra umph to work well.
