Category:
The Central Processing Unit (CPU) or (micro) processor is the part of a computer where most calculations take place. In terms of computing power, the processor is the most important element of a computer system, so the performance of a computer is highly dependant on the performance of the processor. For quite some time the performance of a processor has been determined by the number of MHz the clock speed was, but nowadays clock speed doesn't have so much to do with the speed of the processor anymore. One of the best ways to compare different kinds of processors, is to look up benchmarks on the internet. Please be careful to buy a processor that is compatible with your motherboard, i.e. fits in the right socket.

For the price, the new Athlon II X2 240e and Athlon II X3 435 are great performers, however, for a few dollars more you can upgrade to a Quad Core Athlon II X4 620 which outperforms both of these processors in CPU intensive benchmarks. While the gaming benchmarks are close, the majority of the computing for...

This past October, AMD accomplished a world's first. It became the first company to release a sub-$100 quad-core processor to the market, and given how much Intel has been dominating the CPU landscape as of late, it was great to see the green team at...
Bottom line Throughout all of our performance results, we saw both the 435 and 240e fall well behind all of the other processors in our line-up, but of all the near-20 processors in these charts, these two CPUs from AMD are only two of the four in our chart that...

Home Theater PCs have been all the rage in recent years. As people turn more and more to internet-based services like Hulu and NetFlix to get their entertainment, the demand for devices that can handle all that media and stream it to your TV has shot...
Bottom line With the Athlon II X2 240e, AMD has delivered a CPU that delivers phenomenal bang for your buck. It is excellent for HTPCs where silence and low heat output are chief concerns. It does well with the tasks you’d ask a HTPC to do, and has enough mus...

Green is a hot adjective. In fact, it was one of the fastest growing buzzwords in 2008. Across every industry, green is the new black, being slapped on products that destroy the earth only slightly less than other products. There are truly green produc...
Bottom line This CPU is not going to be for everyone. As we learned in our recent Athlon II X4 620 review, you can get a quad core for around the $100 mark. With the Athlon II 240e debuting at $77, its price is within striking distance of the 620. Nonetheless, th...

What more can you say other than if you want a sub-$200 processor AMD is really the place to be. They are unmatched by Intel and will be until at least sometime into 2010. One bad thing is that all these part names are a little confusing the model numbers can definitely be more than tough to match up with what is actually going on...
