The Athlon 64 X 2 3800 works great. Installed it with no problem though I increased cooling with a larger fan so it would not run so hot. It has not failed and continues to deliver Win XP pro performance I would expect. An increase in memory and memory speed gave it what felt like a doubling in speed. The 2GH base speed of the processor seamed much faster. Running with linux Ubuntu was remarkable. The speed was so much faster then Win XP. The version Ubuntu used was a 64 bit version so it obviously took advantage of the dual processor.
It even works for simple games and basic applications. Recommended if you're building on the cheap, or upgrading an old system, this CPU is worth considering.

Very nice processor! Works well with any/all applications. Lots of punch and speed for the money! Although it's an older model, the processor does a great job in keeping up with moderate computer enthusiast's needs.
