AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Processor

Strengths: Extremely fast and stable.

Weakness: None

Every computer that I have had to date has had an Intel processor. Based on reviews that I read and curiosity on my part about the product, I decided to try the AMD 64 3800+ processor. I was totally amaze by the lightning speed with which this processor works. It doesn't matter what task I send its way, this processor handles it without even exerting itself. In a word, this processor is AWESOME!...

AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Processor

Strengths: Lightning quick. Great for gaming. Uses the new 939 socket.

Weakness: Not all software has drivers for 64-bit processor. Should take another 6 months or so.

Don't be afraid to leave Intel behind! This is one of the fastest processors that AMD has to offer. The 64-bit processor even allows for the new Windows 64-bit operating system. When building a computer from scratch I went for a processor that could handle Doom 3 and other games that are coming out in the next year.

AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Processor

Strengths: Very speedy and a good place on the price value curve.

Weakness: None.

This was my first AMD64 processor, and it was a snap to install and has been rock solid stable ever since. I went with AMD because of the Nforce 4 chipset, and it turns out to be a great replacement for my P4 1.8 GHz. No problems.

AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Processor

Strengths: :: Fast as hell. :: Easy install with heat sink. :: DDR!!!

Weakness: none so far

This processor is a beauty. Was easy to install the heatsink which is always my most dreaded moment when assembling my system. Requires a lot of pressure but the heatsink actually has a slot you can put your screwdriver in to apply the pressure, so that the head doesnt slip and drive a hole through your MB. Other than that what can I say, its a processor, it gets the job done. My config : AMD...

AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Processor

Strengths: integrated DDR memory controller, 64 / 32 bit support, good gaming processor, relatively inexpensive compared to comperable P4 processord

Weakness: Not as fast as P4 for multitasking efforts & office applications

This is my first AMD chip I have always used Intel P4 in the past but wanted to try using and AMD based on some of the user reviews and articles from PC magazines. The processor in the box comes with a decent heat sink / fan and you really don't need anything more besides the packaging says using anything else voids the warranty on the processor so beware of that. The installation was straight...
