5 Star Review AMD is still the best without a doubt.

Strengths:

Very stable at both stock FSB and at 295 times 11 over clock.

Weaknesses:

None so far, still testing max over clock possible with air cooling.

Posted Oct 15, 2007 - This CPU was recognized and ready to run immediately with ASUS M2N32-SLI MoBo. Very fast and stable from install with stock HSF. Changed out to the Enzotech Ultra-120 and temps went way down at stock. Now over clocked 20 percent and still as stable as stock. Excellant CPU with very nice Level 2 cache. AAA+++

5 Star Review Good Performance For The Money

Strengths:

Easy to install, runs stable and cool.

Weaknesses:

None.

Posted Oct 10, 2007 - Running this CPU in a gigabyte M59SLI-S5 mother board installed in a thermaltake armor black case with no overclocking. Runs smooth and stable and I have no problems or complaints. Using stock heat sink fan with arctic silver. Have used AMD's for around 10 years and this one is the best I have used to date.

5 Star Review This is the CPU that them Jive Intel fears.

Strengths:

Super fast even at stock speed. True AMD processesing (Intel wish it can have a cpu like this on their roster)!

Weaknesses:

Can only overclock to 5% on my new Asus M2V Motherboard but so what. Weakness none yet

Posted Sep 22, 2007 - this CPU replaced my Athlon 64 socket 754 CPU single core. this 1 CPU is like 4 of my old CPUs. and an Asus K8N was replaced with my new Asus M2V. I can say more when i break it in some more.I'm thinking about getting a liquid coolant system just so I can overclock it higher.

5 Star Review Powerful processor

Strengths:

Multitasking, speed, price

Weaknesses:

limited onveclocking abilities

Posted Jul 15, 2007 - Have been using it since January on an Asus Crosshair board. this processor hasbeen very solid and performing in an excellent speed all along. I recently upgraded to Vista Ultimate and just seeing the installation speed was enough :). For overclockers and tweakers: - This processor tends to produce massive amounts of heat esp when overclocked. the specs however says it runs close to 60C.... - Although it comes unlocked, it does not seem to be able to be overclockable past 3240MHZ (personal experience, and some reviews seem to mention the same). but then %8 is not that bad :) The processor is fast enough so there is no much need for overclocking. in my case, i only needed it in order to adjust my DDR2 speed multiplier.

5 Star Review THE BEST Value for an AMD dual Core!

Strengths:

EXTREMELY fast, dual core, 64 bit compliant, plenty of room for gaming and future computing, and the "boasting" rights!

Weaknesses:

None so far. Has been very stable since I've had it and I use it to play Oblivion. I'm sure it will continue serving me well.

Posted May 22, 2007 - I highly recommend this CPU for anyone looking for a value fast CPU especially for gaming. The included heatsink is pretty nice, though it is too bad that the fine print says that you void your warranty if you use any other heatsink or cooling product. Other than that, AMD has done another great job in this CPU set. I LOVE IT!

5 Star Review Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Dual Core Processor (3GHz, 2x1MB, 1GHz Bus, Socket AM2)

Strengths:

Great power at a great price

Weaknesses:

None at this time

Posted Jun 13, 2007 - I put this processor with stock heatsink and fan on a Gigabyte GA-MA69G-S3H motherboard. Installed Vista Ultimate without a problem. Could not believe how fast I could install other software programs. I like to play high definition movies and this combo screams.

5 Star Review Overclocked and Cool

Strengths:

Overclocked easily, runs cool with stock sink and fan

Weaknesses:

Vista 64 bit did not recognize it. 90nm technology

Posted Oct 16, 2007 - The processor is really fast. I can multi-task without any problems. Have this overclocked to 3.4Ghz. Super fast for video editing and games. Runs less than 40 degrees C on a full load. That is with the stock heat sink and fan. Great CPU. Totally worth the money. I would definitely buy it again. [Asus M2N32-SLI, AMD 6000+ Windsor, 4GB G.Skill DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800, XFX Geforce 8800 GTS 640mb, 2 WD 750gb sata, OCZ modExtreme 900W)

5 Star Review A Workhouse

Strengths:

Cheap, Powerful, Unbetable

Weaknesses:

Wish there was an easy way to load both CPUs at the same time for a single threaded application

Posted Jun 23, 2007 - I'd recommend AMD X2 6000+ to anybody as it is simply unbeatable. It's low price is worth every penny. It's really sad to see the other company is simply hiding some facts. Their $1000 worth best CPU can barely beat $220 AMD X2 6000+ in Sciencemark Primordia. The challenge is still on. AMD rocks!

5 Star Review Always AMD!

Strengths:

FAST. Stable. Reliable.

Weaknesses:

None at all.

Posted Sep 12, 2007 - No big problems, no little problems, NO problems at all. I bought this 5 months ago when it was the fastest AMD chip available. I'm Very happy I did, and I had always scaled back from top of the line prices. If you'd like to boot windows right off the planet like Me, grab this chip. It boots win xp up in 30 seconds. I don't overclock. Why bother? I don't do games. Waste of time. I run a variety of programs and apps and this chip makes them all run like you got the pedal to the metal, even if you're running more than one ... or two .. or three. *G* God bless you if you need more than this chip, I sure don't. I'm using the stock cpu fan and have another in the case. My system gotten from Mwave: 6000 AMD dualcore, 2x 1gb 667 ram, asus micro atx motherboard using onboard vid and sound, sata3 WD hardrive.

2 Star Review Marketing instead of progress

Strengths:

As quick as a 3 gig dual core should be.

Weaknesses:

Apparently a factory-overclocked 5000+ X2 from looking at processor wattages.

Posted Dec 16, 2007 - These run WAY too hot for serious work (e.g., video encoding). Both of my X2 6000+ machines overheat. One runs at 60C, the other at 70C and I don't dare overclock. Going back to Intel after 15 yrs.

5 Star Review MSI K9VGM-V MoBo Owners, this CPU Does work for you!

Strengths:

Fast, stable, affordable

Weaknesses:

Your PSU can overheat if it is under 600W

Posted Dec 26, 2007 - It's a great CPU. I got it to replace an outdated Semptron 3000+ that I got for this PC originally. For my MoBo, the highest supported CPU is supposed to be Athlon 64x2 @ 5400+, but this processor upgrade has been running with no problems at under 52C, so I do recommend it. Currently I use it mostly to run all my Adobe CS3 programs, Office 2007, Safari, SlingMedia, Azuerus and video files in DivX, Xvid, Mkv, MP4 and OGM files SD and HD quality without slag. The extra RAM and large defraged HDs help a lot too. Overall, I do recommend you getting this processor for a fast, stable and affordable upgrade experience suitable for today's needs. I don't do PC gaming, so I can't comment on that, sorry.

5 Star Review Athlon 64 x2 6000+ Dual Core Processor

Strengths:

unbelieveable - I don't know how I did without

Weaknesses:

none

Posted Oct 23, 2007 - This processor is unbelievable. How I managed before beats me - constant hesitation but this one never holds me back. You would have to understand I do quite a bit at a time: word, video rendering, scrapbooking, photos, faxes, notes, vista, etc. Not to mention the video rendering speed (along with my dual 8800 (728) video cards) blows my old machine away. :p
