Model overview based on user reviews  
The AMD Phenom II is a powerful and affordable processor that offers excellent performance for its price. Users appreciate its multicore capabilities, high compatibility, and overclocking potential. It performs well in gaming and productivity tasks, with some users noting it outperforms certain Intel models. However, the stock cooler is a common point of criticism, being described as noisy and insufficient for heavy loads. Many recommend replacing it with a quieter, more efficient cooler, especially if overclocking. Overall, it's a great choice for budget builds but may struggle with the demands of modern games without additional cooling solutions.

The only real 6-core processor
30 March 2011 
I'm a PC assembler. I've tested various configurations. I'm satisfied with the six-core. In real-world condition tests on identical stands (the graphics cards and RAM were exactly the same), the 3.2 x 6 outperformed the Core7 990x (3.46 x 6). Despite the 4000 bus (Intel 6400), it beats the competitor. The true 6 cores and large cache make a difference. Got it up to 4.7 stably. Under a Zalman cooler. The processor noticeably sped up. Really a good product. I recommend it for high-performance configurations!
Excellent initial cache. Physical multicore. Fantastic performance. High compatibility. Authentic 64-bit instructions. Full set of AMD instructions.
6 cores can only be found at 3.2 GHz. Despite running fine with the stock cooler, it's not serious.

Fast processor for a low price

Finally built myself a great battle machine. Got a 2.8 GHz quad-core. Excellent performance speed. Haven't seen the CPU load at 100 percent yet. Really handles heavy loads. Want to try overclocking it more, but I don't know much about it, so I don't want to do it for now. A friend has the same processor, and he overclocked it to three gigs, and everything flies for him. As for the stock cooler, it's very basic, as simple as it gets. Very noisy. Swapped it for a quieter one.
excellent stone, price-quality
noisy cooler, it's worth getting another one

Great CPU for a small amount of money

Over a week of use - everything functions perfectly. As for the stock cooler, it's not as good as advertised, there are better ones out there, so don't fall for the hype. It's quite noisy, especially under load. If you overclock, be careful and monitor the temperatures, 70°C is the limit!!! I overclocked mine to 3600. Conclusion—quite a powerful processor for the money.
A good performant processor, all new games run without issues.
not a very good cooler as advertised, quite noisy, there are better ones.
