C3 revision of the Phenom II X4 965 BE processor is shipped in a newly redesigned box. It is smaller than the older Phenom II box, and it has just enough space to fit the CPU in a re-designed clamshell, more compactly printed installation instructions, a sticker (it didn't change), and the fan/heatsink.

News

AMD cuts prices of desktop CPUs

May 01, 2013: Earlier this week AMD announced new processors, expanding the line of high-end FX CPUs with quad-core FX-4350 and six-core FX-6350. It's not uncommon for AMD to lower prices when launching new products, and this time it was not an exception. Based on the latest official AMD price list, the company cut prices of ten A-Series and FX-Series chips by as much as 19%.

Bits and pieces: A4-3450 APU spotted, AMD retires Phenom II CPUs

Jul 12, 2012: The first generation of AMD Accelerated Processing Units, based on Llano core, hasn't been refreshed since the beginning of this year. Considering that AMD plans to replace Llano products with "Trinity"-based ones, and that some "Trinity" parts has already been launched, we didn't expect to see new Llano processors. However, recently updated CPU support information for Biostar motherboards revealed new A4-3450 APU.

AMD cuts prices of Phenom II and FX CPUs

Feb 28, 2012: As you may know, AMD yesterday launched two FX microprocessors, including company's first production CPU, operating faster than 4 GHz. New product releases are usually accompanied by price drops of older models, and it wasn't an exception this time. AMD cut prices on two FX-Series models, and reduced prices for most of Phenom IIs. They also added pricing for A-Series A6-3620 and A8-3820 Accelerated Processing units (APUs).

I never used AMD before but this time I gave it a chance in my new configuration. This CPU is really wonderful. If you put a good cooler and fan, you can easily overclock to @4.00Ghz stable. Never go over 60'C temperature. If you are looking for performance, buy this CPU.
