The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor puts the power of dual-core technology on the desktop. Dual-core processors contain two processing cores, residing on one chip, that perform calculations on two streams of data, thereby increasing efficiency and speed while running multiple programs and the new generation of multi-threaded software. For user this means a significant increase in response and performance when running multiple applications simultaneously. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor outperforms the highest-performing AMD Athlon 64 4000+ single-core processor on multi-tasking benchmarks by up to 30%. Dual-core technology is like having two processors working together, each one taking care of different applications, so power-users actually experience greater performance when multiple applications are running. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor is designed for people who want to stay at the forefront of technology and for those who depend on their PCs to keep them connected, informed, and entertained. Systems based on AMD Athlon 64 processors are able to deliver leading-edge performance for demanding productivity and entertainment software today and in the future.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Enough for a workstation
Comment: This processor has enough power for a workstation at a great price, if you are into seriuos games maybe you have to consideer at least a three core cpu, but of course this is in case you are planning to put it together with a $200 video card, but in pair with a 8600gt it's a perfect match
Customer Rating:
Summary: OOPS
Comment: After a 2 week wait the wrong item was delivered. Was adveretised as a socket 939 but came through as AM2. Could not find a way to get the correct replacement. What's up with that?
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very nice
Comment: AMD did a great job and I really enjoy my M2 CPU. I had a flawless install and it just zooms. Sure there are faster CPUs but the price and speed just makes it that much sweeter. I do have a certain amount of brand loyalty but AMD has consistently given me what I needed for a price I could afford for many years.

Summary: pain
Comment: Amazon changed the discription here. I orderd socket 939 as advertised:
"AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4600+ 2.4 GHz Processor with 89-Watt Power Socket Number (939)"
It came as socket AM2!
It also took much longer to arrive then stated. I'm not sure if I will trust amazon to order computer parts again--big pain and I have to pay to return the product now--so I feel that I got ripped off here.
Customer Rating:
Summary: WOW
Comment: Simply amazing...have not had any issues as of yet. This is fast...I have not had to overclock it yet. It can handle anything I throw at it. I have set up a home theater and am using my computer to record HD tv shows and this CPU has not bogged down once. If you are on the edge think no further...buy this one!!
