What People Are Saying Give it to me straight
Multicore
by Tech Radar (Sep, 2010)Because it's based on the quad-core Propus processor, it's possible to unlock the fourth and final core.
by PunkX-1 (Dec, 2011)Unfortunately, the 4th core was unstable.
by Tech Radar (Sep, 2010)You've got a higher clocking quad-core chip, gratis.
Socket Type
by Tech Radar (Sep, 2010)But the difference is small enough to be academic: 37 frames per second compared to 35 in World of Conflict.
by PunkX-1 (Dec, 2011)The X3 435 that i had bought for my dad's computer is clocked at a modest 2.9Ghz with 1.5 MB L2 cache and a TDP count of 95W.
by PunkX-1 (Dec, 2011)I had upgraded to this processor from a Core 2 Duo E4500 and my jaw dropped as i saw average frames shoot right up and encoding time shoot right down.
Price
by Frank08 (Nov, 2011)I'm sure that this CPU will bottleneck much more powerful cards, but for the price, this processor cannot be beat.
by Tech Radar (Sep, 2010)Put simply, you'll get your video encoding and content creation sessions finished faster with the cheaper quad-core chip.
Applications
by Frank08 (Nov, 2011)But after using it, I have not seem any dramatic decrease in the games that I play.
by PunkX-1 (Dec, 2011)However, as time passed by and people started noticing the numbers the X3 had started raking in, in games and multi-theaded apps alike, it became an instant smash.
Socket
by Tech Radar (Sep, 2010)It's certainly up against some pretty stiff in-house competition from the likes of the quad-core AMD Athlon II X4 620.
