THIS PRODUCT SHIPS IN OEM PACKAGING -
GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.
Detailed Features
Features
HyperTransport® 3.0 Technology
Scaled Performance to conserve PC power. Get a sharper, crisper image while
you watch movies, view photos or play a game in high-definition with a powerful
system that won't slow down
Cool 'N' Quiet 2.0 Technology
Enhanced power management features which automatically and instantaneously
adjusts performance states and features based on processor performance requirements.
For quieter operation and reduced power requirements. Enables platform designs
providing less heat and noise efficient performance and energy usage.
AMD Virtualization™ (AMD-V)
Silicon feature-set enhancements designed to improve the performance, reliability,
and security of existing and future virtualization environments by allowing
virtualized applications with direct and rapid access to their allocated memory.
Helps virtualization software to run more securely and efficiently enabling
a better experience when dealing with virtual systems.
AMD CoolCore™ Technology
Reduces processor energy consumption by turning off unused parts of the processor.
For example, the memory controller can turn off the write logic when reading
from memory, helping reduce system power. Works automatically without the
need for drivers or BIOS enablement. Power can be switched on or off within
a single clock cycle, saving energy without comprimised performance. Helps
users get more efficient performance by dynamically activating or turning
off parts of the processor.

Great processor had it for 5 months and no problems. It's not the fastest processor but for that price it beats intel in terms of bang for your buck.
Heat Sinks - Many Shapes & Sizes!
A heat sink (or heatsink) is an object that absorbs and dissipates heat from
another object using thermal contact (either direct or radiant). Heat sinks
are used in a wide range of applications wherever efficient heat dissipation
is required; including for CPUs, Memory, Video Cards, and more.
Heat Sink Shapes Change!
Many products come with a Heat Sink, and some with a combination Heat Sink
and Fan. Keep in mind though, that manufacturers are constantly
improving the design of their cooling components, thus the shape and design
of the heat sink or heat sink & fan can change on any product at any time.
PLEASE NOTE:
Cooling Components Can Change At Any Time, And Do Not
Affect The Performance Or Specifications Of The Product.
How Do Heat Sinks Work?
Heat sinks function by transferring high temperature thermal energy (heat)
from one object (such as a CPU chip) to a second object (such as the Heat
Sink), which has a lower temperature, with a much greater heat capacity.
This rapid transfer of heat quickly balances the temperature of both
devices, lowering the temperature of the first. This is what makes a
heat sink a cooling device. Since room temperature is usually cooler than
the hot device, the Heat Sink helps cool the device, lowering its temp to
closer to room temperature.
The most common design of a heat sink is a metal device with many fins or
vanes. The high thermal conductivity of the metal combined with the large
surface area of the fins does the work to rapidly transfer heat to the
surrounding, cooler, air. This cools the heat sink and whatever it is in
contact with. Some Heat Sinks use the metal alone for cooling, some
use fluids (just like you car radiator) and a thermal interface material
(such as thermal gel) to ensure maximum heat transfer to the heat sink.
Adding a fan dramatically improves air flow, and improves the heat transfer
even more.
Remember The
Thermal Paste!
Remember that when you are adding a Heat Sink, you MUST USE
thermally conductive Gel or Paste, to form a good thermal contact between
the Heat Sink and the Device. Failing to use this will result in
reduced cooling, and possible failure and damage to the device!
This product has a
Socket AM2 CPU Socket.
Your CPU is the heart of your computer. Keeping it cool improves
performance and prevents damage. Be sure you have a good CPU cooling
product!
