Pros: Works as expected and has a good price for performance. avg FPS in World of Warcraft is between 70 and 140 using a 34 inch ultra wide screen. Cons: Not as fast as I was hoping for. Ended up ordering new board, cpu, ram, psu to handle the intensity of Twitch + Fraps + Raiding in World of Warcraft. $$ Sink for I7-6850K. Appears wow has issues trying to use multiple cpu cores past 4 and due to the difference in architecture an I5 performs better than amd high end CPU's for this situation.

Excellent Cpu preforms very well at stock clock speeds but can easily be overclocked with the right mobo. Cpu runs on the hot side during intense gaming but can easily be fixed with liquid cooling or a better then stock cooler, although the wraith cooler is much better then the usual stock coolers.

while fx s are being replaced this fx8350 is still one of the best cpu s out there. if possible get one with wraith cooler for best heating problems......if not get 212 cooler or use h2o cooling..all 3 work great.....anyway 8350fx is one of best for games or doing multiply things thank you jc

5 out of 5 eggs great CPU with a very nice fan This review is from: AMD CPU FX-8350 Black Edition 4.0 GHz (4.2 GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ FD8350FRHKHBX Desktop Processor with AMD Wraith Cooler Pros: the fan is extremely quiet, so this is much preferred to the regular stock fans. the CPU it self is amazing, and I've had zero issues with it running any games so far and I've tried need for speed 2016 ultra settings, battlefield 4, Starwars Battlefront, Fallout 4, and Doom 2016. all of them run buttery smooth. Cons: i'd expect it to not do so well with some older games that don't utilize multicore processors as well. so i'd definitely go for the Athlon series for that or i3, but with this you kind of future proof yourself since DX12 and Vulkan are increasing multicore proficiency.

Great AMD Processor, I'm buying my second. Very fast and dependable, doesn't fail. I also use 32 GB of Kingston DDR3 and Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P motherboard. Anyway I am real happy with the way it performs.

very fast and reliable. Very easy to install. a lot faster than the AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition I had in my computer.

It was easy to install and so far has worked flawlessly. The Wraith cooler works very well AND it has RGB lighting which I was not expecting so it was an added bonus. Great processor for a budget minded pc upgrade. I have not tried any of the newer games on it yet as I dont have enough horsepower under the hood in the GPU department as of yet. Plays my older flight sims very well though... Looking to upgrade my RAM to 32GB and get a Radeon 570 gpu at a later date. Then I believe that my pc can run with the big dogs. It may not lead the pack but at least it wont be chained to the porch!

I upgraded to an fx 8350 from a fx 4300. The difference is very noticable. I'am able to have multiple windows open and the same time with no performance drop off. I also stream to twitch with much less cpu usage. Install was very easy as i am a novice and had no issues.

Fast fast fast. Used it on a am3+ Gigabyte motherboard with a new Samsung solid state drive. WOW what a difference in speed' great deal.

Built a budget gaming rig and i will say that even though this processor is 5 year old it is a solid processor, very pleased with my purchase, i could have gone with the new AMD ryzen but i would have had to drop an additional hundred on an AM4 motherboard and at least 300 on ddr4 ram. so this was the better route for me.
