Description:
Multi-tasking has become a way of life, but sometimes your PC just can't keep up with everything you want to do on it at the same time. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor enables true multitasking - taking computing to an all new level. Dual-Core technology is like having two processors working together, each one taking care of different applications. So now you can simultaneously burn a CD, check e-mail, edit a digital photo, and run your virus protection - all without slowing down your computer.To protect your computer you've installed all the latest virus protection and firewall software. The result? Your PC is safer but slower. Upgrade to a computer powered by the AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor - now you can run protection programs in the background while a second runs the applications you want to work on - making computing fast again.

Overheating by sam
Hi,
I have one of the CPU's and It overheated and now I cant even get to POST.
Do you think there is any chance it could have damaged any other components in my PC?
Hi,
Sorry to hear that. I very much doubt so, but please check your motherboard with another CPU.
Fan/Heatsink by Douglas
Does this processor come with a fan/heatsink? Thank you.
Dimension c521 Upgrade? by zarathustra
Hi,
I'm really keen to get an update to my 2GHz 3800+. I've already upgraded my GPU to a low-profile 8600GT. Will I be over-taxing my PSU if I slip one of these 5600+ beauties in?
All the best.

This is an AM2 processor, please make sure your board supports this processor prior to purchasing.
