Strengths: SO far this processor is amazing.
Weakness: havent found any yet
I choose this processor because of the large cache and speed. I wanted something that I could multitask with and not have to worry about delays. This is the first dual core processor I have ever used and so far its great. I do suggest that you use silcone when installing it. It seems to run a little hot, but all in all this is an amazing processor. AMD 64 X2 4400 A8N-SLI motherboard (2) Raptor...
Strengths: Speeds up load times when running multiple programs; 64-bit processing; Lower heat output; Good for gaming
Weakness: Alot of windows configuring needed to utilize full potential; Tricky to overclock
This processor makes the job of running several programs at once easier to deal with than what I was used to with previous processors. The 2mb cache helps with that so don't settle for the 4200+. Gaming has been better, clearer, and more stable, but there still could be room for improvement. The down side is that it takes alot of computer skill, with the OS and the hardware, to run it properly....
Strengths: Dual Core 64 bit
Weakness: Price
I am not using the heat sink/fan that comes with this chip so I can't commit on its cooling efficiency. Instead I am using the Zalman 7700-Cu. Definitely a fast chip. I multi-task all the time between compiling source code, debugging, running large databases, surfing the internet, and playing games. This chip doesn't cause a bottleneck for any of my applications. Expensive but worth it.
Strengths: easy install, fast processors, 2 cores
Weakness: pricey, but you get what you pay for!
I use this with an Asus A8N SLI premium motherboard. Have not had ANY problems. I am not an experienced computer builder, but I had absolutely no troubles constructing the computer around this processor. I used some type of Arctic Silver as a compound and did not experience heat issues (although of course this thing will run hot!) I felt this processor was a sweet spot between more expensive and...
Strengths: Dual core rocks and this is dual core done right. AMD really did right on this one.
Weakness: No games currently avaliable to take advantage of dual core cpu.
This is a great multitasking processor, but unfornately game developers aren't using this technology yet. If your wondering, each core is equivalent to a Athlon XP 3700, which is what your games will run at. The new games coming out soon are supposed to be multi threaded, but who knows when they will be released. I decided to use this processor for work (a lot of multitasking) and bought a FX55...
Strengths: its a high end processor at a reasonable price
Weakness: none from my vantage point, but for others its a matter of how extreme they are and the products they want
As I said in the weakness, truly there aren't any if you an enthusiate like myself. I am just begining to get into how computers work and from what I have researched, this baby is most likely as good as, if not better, than what most people want. Again, get this now, 9/13/05 is the time that I got it. If by the time you read this is already a years past, its still good for those needing a decent...
Strengths: Fast, runs cool, full 1MB L2 cache per core
With this processor installed, my system never slows down. As a side benefit, it runs cool and doesn't consume much power. Even the stock cooler keeps it under 50 degrees load, which is impressive. For those wondering whether dual core is worth the upgrade, the answer is "it depends." If you do non-trivial multitasking you'll see huge performance games. By multitasking I don't mean running Word,...
Strengths: What a step up! Dual core, hypertransport, relatively easy to keep running cool (thanks to 90nm process technology), FAST.
Weakness: Price, but divide it by 2 and you get a pretty good "price per core."
Stepping up from an old Intel 2.4GHz P4, the Athlon X2 4400+ is a delight. I run several apps at a time and the multitasking performance of this CPU is exceptional. It simply plows through them. Whether I'm streaming audio to a wireless Squeezebox, downloading new Podcasts, playing TV shows, editing RAW images, burning CDs/DVDs, etc., this process manages to handle everything at the same time...
Strengths: This is the third fastest AMD dual core processor and by extension, probably the third fastest desktop processor you can buy.
Weakness: Produces a lot of heat.
I can't say this is overpriced. Ever since I bought it, I've been floored by the performance of this CPU. I have it in a A8N-SLI Deluxe and it churns through all my MATLAB and Mathematica programs with ease. As far as gaming, this will ensure that your CPU is not a bottleneck, even at lower resolutions and with many new games taking advantage of dual cores (Quake 4, Call of Duty 2 etc.) this...

Bones - pickin' up bones - For A Barebones Hot...
Strengths: Dual Core, 64 bit, 939 pin, 2000MHz. processor interface, 2Mb. of L2 cache, L1+L1 what can I say?
Weakness: Zip
This 4400 is only one step off from the 4800 at 2.2GHz. compared to the 2.4GHz. offered by the 4800. Guess what? That difference is easily overcome with a light 200MHz. overclock if you even want it. That makes up the differences and makes the 4400's lower price very attractive. What is needed, for this Dual Core processor to run at full throttle, is a motherboard and components capable of using...
