Very good value for price
Just installed this & WOW got it pronto... Much faster CPU than my old 4-core. Easy to O.C. & install, running a bit hot though I will need to up the cooling in my box. Would recommend easily over any 4-core. Very quick+stable handles everything I throw at it with ease AMD rocks! Thanks

Great, Fast and Quiet
Great value + performance, and upside is that it is so quiet and I am just using the default fan comes with the cpu, so far I am impressed with AMD. I had two intel boxes prior to this, I kinda curious how AMD cpu would do, I am happy about the switch.

6 CORES!!
I've had this CPU 6 months. I can't find anything that this chip can't handle. I have two I5's that have better so called benchmarks but don't work as well. I'm glad I made the switch to AMD. It's a fraction of the cost and works better than the so called equivilant or better Intel chips I have. If you're even close to the fence on the brand name issue, believe me that having the name isn't worth the money, climb the fence and don't look back.
