I have that AMD cpu but, I don't know how well it would suite your needs. Have you tried looking at AMD's website to see the processor's full set of specs? It might provide you more insight.

The product code in the description is the same as the one I bought, though the picture of the box is different. Mine included a cooling fan with an already applied thermal patch. If I remember correctly, back in December of 2009, I paid about twice the listed price. I run this processor 24x7 in my main desktop computer on a Asus P5KPL-CM motherboard with 4 GB of ram using Vista Ultimate 64-bit. I've never had a problem with the processor.

I'd recommend anyone that could afford this CPU to get it. The only con with this CPU would be if you pay the price and you don't use the extra computing power. But you won't be disappointed in any task you ask it to do.

It was not in box, but it was the correct processor. I've been using it for 6 months now with no issue. You'll need some thermal paste, though.

Sorry must be a typo, its 1150 cpu`s only. However 1155 cpu coolers are compatible!

Yes, but I'm bemused you are more interested in the sticker than the performance of this cpu!. For the record, I just 'upgraded' from my trusty FX9590 and Asus Formula Z to this 4790K and Asus Z97WS mobo which cost me £500 and has given me nothing but hassle. Check out my Amazon review 'over-hyped, over-priced and a pain in the neck'.

The 2 cores listed on the specs is most likely a typo. It is in fact a quad core i5.

Guys, sorry for that irrelevant comment/question: how do u feel about your 7000 series laptop? I bought one & kinda having 2nd thoughts about it

You can go for a board upgrade since these guys are spooking you. Motherboard HP Pavilion DV7-1000 AMD CPU 486542-001 My partner and I have revived many of these AMD Boards with flux, reballing and paste. Some of them require copper shims as an add on. These are not gaming machines and I think that's where some users exceed the limits.

I would absolutely recommend! This CPU's 6 cores is more than capable of handling the task. Its not overkill at all. However, there is more than just the CPU in question. What Motherboard do you have? I'd recommend this CPU for your purpose if your motherboard & cpu cooler would allow for some overclocking at least. I have this CPU at 4.7GHz, thats not necessary for your task, but just to give an idea. Also to further your cause I would also recommend no less than 16GB of RAM clocked at least at 1600Mhz, but 2133MHz RAM speed would hit a home run with this CPU.

Only if you can find the 'white elephant' 95 watt TDP 8 core. Supposedly they were made, but I've never seen one for sale... So you're likely maxed out with the 95 watt 6 core 'Piledriver' CPU. Still very respectable !

Edward,You're very welcome. I ordered it straightly from Amazon one week and a half ago when it was $949. General impression about it - I love it! It is super fast. My previous laptop was based on Core 2 Duo (2 GB RAM) and the difference in speed is very noticeable.

Dxdiag says i5 cpu @ 2.80 Ghz quad core. No, its i5 on mine. It is cheap for a gaming laptop and you can always upgrade the CPU. Im satisfied with my purchase. Can handle most games at ultra settings.

The answer is yes, however it is better to just order core i7 model. These prices are specific to these prebuilt systems and come with CPU Core specified by model. You can always check out http://www.asus.com/Desktops/M11AD/specifications/
