Brilliant...Athlon 11 X2 250 3Ghz
Reviewed by Ian. Review Posted 28/10/2010
Bought to install on a new Asus M4A785TD-V EVO AM3 board. All I can say is it's brilliant. Does what it says on the box. I also bought Artic Silver 5 from Dabs to get a good heatsink bed down (rather than relying on the paste already supplied on the heatsink) this has paid off with really low temps from the start,these should go lower as the paste, heatsink and processor bed in. TIP: make sure you follow the Arctic Silver 'tinting' process and the instructions for applying the paste to the processor. DO NOT SPREAD IT AROUND ON THE PROCESSOR use the spot method outlined in the online instructions at the Arctic site. I run Linux and I can now have four full screens open at once with multiple apps open and running without loss of performance. Haven't oc'd it yet but can oc to 4Ghz on my board apparently. Thanks Dabs for your good service.
