Phenom X3 8750 Processor HD8750WCGHBOX
Ready for a performance boost over single and dual-core processors? AMD
Phenom™ X3 triple-core processors offer three processing cores on a single chip,
plus cutting-edge features and capabilities for next-generation applications.
AMD Phenom™ X3 8000 series triple-core processors, providing gamers and digital
media enthusiasts with exceptional performance at mainstream low prices. AMD
Phenom X3 processors are designed to improve multi-threaded application performance
over dual-core processors at the same clock speed. As the world’s only triple-core
x86 processor, AMD Phenom X3 processors bring multi-core technology to a broader
audience in search of desktop PCs that easily handle today’s digital entertainment
workloads.
What It Is & Why You Need It!
- Up to 20% more performance on highly threaded applications with AMD Phenom™ X4 9000 series over AMD Phenom™ X3 8000 series triple core processors
- Up to 30% improvement on highly threaded applications over AMD Athlon™
X2 dual core processors at same frequency
When paired with the AMD 780 series chipset, AMD Phenom X3 processors can deliver significant enhancements in gaming and high-definition experiences for mainstream PC customers. This AMD desktop solution can provide a full HD experience with support for the latest and most demanding formats, including VC-1, MPEG-2 and H.264 on a mainstream PC. With the AMD Unified Video Decoder (UVD), the solution can process HD playback on the better-suited GPU rather than the CPU so consumers may enjoy a smooth HD viewing experience—less lag, stalling and dropped scenes—in the latest Blu-ray titles.
Do more than dual-core. AMD Phenom X3 8750 processors can improve performance over dual-core processors on single-threaded applications and can scale with the same applications that scale with quad-core. AMD Phenom triple-core processors can also increase performance for multitasking usage models and multi-threaded applications, aligned with similar benefits available with AMD Phenom X4 quad-core processors. Get added performance for multitasking, HD entertainment, content creation, and gaming applications.

BE CAREFUL! Pros: Runs great... when it's not crashing. Cons: This processor has a compatibility bug with Vista 64 bit. For some reason, all current Phenoms (except the 9550) have memory/cache conflicts. These cause Blue Screens of Death (BSoD). This can also occur under Vista 32, but only under extreme conditions. I paired this CPU with Vista 64 and now it seems like I can't go ten seconds without a crash. If you want to move foreward and use 64 bit, buy an Athlon X2. If you want to stick with classic 32 bit technology, you can get a Phenom. You could also wait until February when the 'fixed' phenoms come out.
