Pros: Easy OC, possible X6
Cons: None really
Working on almost a year of this little Gem, I've been debating on upgrading it but I keep coming back to the realization that there is nothing wrong with it and I keep thinking about a impulse upgrade, this along with the bigger brothers 1090T/1100T are probably the last of a great series of chips from AMD. The current FX line is still young and will hopefully mature over the years as the Phenom IIs did. This thing overclocks with such ease and stays remarkably cool. It takes very little effort to bring it right up to 4ghz and still have a vcore under 1.40, probably still has a little headroom in it after 4.0 but I dont think the risk reward would be worth it. I would probably still buy these for friends/family rigs I've built if they were still available and I'll honestly probably never sell mine, I like it enough I'll probably keep it just for sentimental value. Lastly if you got a good one and unlocked to a X6 you could never go wrong.


Great chip
