Strengths: The AMD Phenom 9850 Quad Core Processor runs 3.5 times faster.
Weakness: none that I can see.
The AMD Phenom 9850 Quad Core Processor has a better price per performance index over Intel. I use my PC to do circuit simulation and Autocad design and have used AMD products for at least 25 years. One thing that I wished they would do is to tell you that a heat sink came with the processor.
Strengths: Very Overclockable, Quad Core, Black Edition
Weakness: None
The Phenom 9850 is another great CPU from AMD. This quad-core processor is the Black Edition and the multiplier is unlocked. This results in great potential for overclocking. Use a good CPU cooler and go crazy with this processor.

The four new AMD Phenom X4 processors that AMD is...

AMD Phenom 9850 Quad Core Processor
Strengths: Awesome processor!!! Great Overclocking capabilities! Great price, now even lower priced since I purchased it 3 months ago.
Weakness: None that I can think of!
This is an awesome processor, especially if you're interested in one that allows you to overclock it. The CPU/FSB multiplier is unlocked therefore I was able to overclock this processor up to about 3.0GHz without needing to increase the voltage. I thought about going a little higher since my CPU is water cooled by a Koolance CPU-340 CPU Block, but my goal was to reach 3.0GHz. I will try to push...
