Specifications
To keep up with their competitors, or should we just say “Intel” they have slightly increased the base speed to 3.3GHz and with a turbo speed of 3.7GHz it puts this processor in line with some of the other CPU’s in AMD’s range.
Being a Phenom II, it incorporates that L3 cache that we all know and love, giving us a total of 6MB shared L3 cache.
Core wise, it’s still based on the Thuban core, and has a TDP of 125watts, so make sure you have a good cooler ready if you plan on overclocking. All of this technology is nicely bundled up on a 45nm process ready for the 938 pin AM3 socket.

190 doesn`t sound so bad for that 3.6 turbo speed. but when we`ll see stock speed from AMD at least 3.8 at this price then i`ll consider it 🙂
why not make stable 4 point 0 😀 GHz CPU? Naah Whole pace gathered by the competition between Intel and AMD is good for prices of older models. But what with multi threaded apps? You pay for the 6cores and only few of apps can take advantage of it? That's why i'm using x2 low power CPU in my HTPC. Am I wrong when i will say that i can count those apps with all my fingers ? BTW 190Ł holy smokey! that's almost whole my computer price 😀
I bet you can clock that up even higher, but still, any 6 core processor is beast. I love AMD processors, so cheaply sold which makes it good for people like me. Great review, thank you.
