AMD FX 8350 Black Edition "Vishera" CPU (8 Core, AM3+, Clock 4.0 GHz, Turbo 4.2 GHz, 8 MB L3 Cache, 125 W)

You were one of the lucky ones to have bought this back when it was first released. In all honesty, this chip still run's today's games! But, DO NOT BUY OR upgrade now as ryzens & better are out. About the CPU? This CPU plays well in 1920x1080 GTX 1660 AMP todays video cards in games like Monster Hunter World 60fps with about 70% CPU utilization at 4.2Ghz or higher The Division 2 GTFO Road Redemption Killing floor 2 Fortnite Resident evil 2 remake Pretty much any game released yesterday with the right setup. My system specs other then videocard & cpu: RAM: ripjaws x2 16gb ram with ares x2 16gb ram XMP @ 1600mhz PSU: 750w Corsair HDD's x2 MB Gigabyte 970 rev 2.# GPU's tested with this processor: GTX 960 AMP gddr5 & GTX 1660 AMP gddr6 Some games are broken as they are older or are frame limited. Other games may work better on single core performance as well such as ARMA 3 & Escape from Tarkov. However. The AMD FX 8350 series still is one of the best chips on yesterdays market for the FX series. It also holds the highest OC online 8.1Ghz! Meaning, the RAM speeds & other components is whats actually slowing it down at this point. Since there is no DDR4 am3 socket MB, there is actually no telling how far this CPU could go. P.S. I do not recommend trying to overclock pass 6ghz at all lul. On the box, yes, it says you can achive 6ghz. WARNING: DO NOT USE or BUY WITH STOCK FAN! You will expierence so many issues from noise to BSOD to freezes, lockups, shutdowns. The Stock fan cooling is way too TINY for this power hungry CPU & it will slow it down performance wise & may cause damage over time due to lack of cooling. If you do use the STOCK fan, I recommend disabling Turbo Mode right away & keeping all cooling options enabled. Power options for windows, set CPU cooling policy to PASSIVE. & be sure its always on Balanced mode in power options. This will keep things better.

価格も安いし、ひと昔前のCPUですが、定格で使用するには、まったく不満がありません。

Hallo, ich habe diesen Prozessor gekauft, um meinen fx-6100 auszuwechseln und ich muss sagen es hat sich gelohnt. Ich verwende meinen Rechner hauptsächlich fürs zocken UND streamen. WARUM AMD: Denn hier muss Intel (in dieser Preisklasse) einstecken. Wenn man auf die Prozessorleistung eines einzigen Kernes schaut und Intel mit AMD vergleicht stellt man fest, dass Intel dort 50% besser ist. Spielebenchmarks gehen generell besser für die Intels aus. Dies liegt aber nur daran, dass die meisten Spiele nur 4 CPU verwenden. Es gibt nur wenige die mehr auslasten (BF4, Crysis 3). Das wird sich in Zukunft aber ändern! Die Intels sind wesentlich teurer! Für diesen Preis bekommt man noch nicht mal einen i5 der neuesten Generation. Wenn man nämlich wirklich alle 8 Kerne der CPU auslastet, ist AMD BESSER. Es gibt keinen 8-Kerner von Intel, der annährend in diesem Preissegment ist. Die neuen Spielkonsolen haben auch AMD Prozessoren. Und warum? Weil diese sehr viele Aufgaben auf einmal erledigen müssen und AMD das für den Preis besser kann. Benchmarks zeigen das. Meine ERFAHRUNGEN mit dem FX-8350: Der Prozessor ist leicht einzubauen (Wer nicht genau weiß wie, sollte sich einfach Youtube-Videos anschauen). Ich zocke hauptsächlich Company of Heroes 2 (ein aktuelles grafikintensives Spiel) und streame es. Dabei muss ich sagen, kann ich das Spiel in maximaler Qualität zocken und streamen. Das Spiel nutzt nur 4 Kerne, das reicht aber vollkommen aus. Die restlichen Kerne werden fürs streamen verwendet (Streamen ist sehr Rechenintensiv). Mit diesem Prozessor laufen alle Spiele die auf dem Markt sind einwandfrei und werden es auch zukünftig durch die potenzielle Auslastung aller Kerne. DER KÜHLER: Es wird rel. viel über den mitgelieferten Kühler lamentiert. Ich finde aber das er ausreichend ist und auch nicht "wie ein Jet startet". Ja, er könnte leiser sein, er stört mich persönlich aber nicht. FAZIT: Für diesen Preis gibt es nichts besseres auf dem Markt.

Good Product....delivery was good...the packaging was good enough...got the original product... Now about the processor....its a very good budget processor....Octa-core with 4.2ghz stock clockspeed per core isn't a matter of joke..besides that, this processor supports overclocking upto 5.0 Ghz.....don't know about new games..but slightly old games like...COD , Arkham knight etc...even new game PUBG run smoothly in this system with a decent graphics card....I love FX-8350..

JUNE 12, 2013 UPDATE I've had this CPU for going on four months now. It's still rocking it! Runs the latest "Metro Last Light" with a breeze. TO fixing my heating issues I mention below, I have upgraded the fans on my radiator to the Corsair SP120 high performance fans. As of now I have this thing running at exactly 5018Mhz stable right now. Also over time I experimented with RAM. Believe it or not, decreasing my RAM speed actually gained me some FPS in all of my games (its running slightly below 1600Mhz now). I recommend doing FPS benchmarks if you are aiming for gaming with this. Also I wanted to add in my last Power Supply blew up on me. I am now using the gold rated Corsair HX750 that seems work better with this CPU overclocked in terms of heat/stability. Let me skip all the BS. This is a BEAST of a CPU! I've had an AMD Phenom II x6 1045t for the past year now. Although I loved the 1045t CPU, it simply wasn't the greatest for gaming. My stock speed was 3.9Ghz and I overclocked it to 4.5Ghz via the turbo, but with turbo on the Phenom II chips, only three cores would activate. I also was gifted recently an XSPC Raystorm rs360 liquid cooling kit and with that high end cooling I simply wanted the best overclockable chip out there. For about three month's I eyeballed this CPU up on various websites. I wanted it desperately, but I had a few issues and asked myself the following questions. Was it a big enough upgrade over the 1045t? Was it worth buying over the cheaper 8320 model? Lastly should I consider saving up for an intel system instead because of AMD's rocky future in the CPU world (reports say the excavator models are pushed back to 2014 at least)? I took the plunge - I ordered this CPU and could not be happier. The base speed of 4Ghz is awesome, it's nice to see something like that right out of the box. Furthermore the overclockability of this chip is absolutely astounding. You can overclocked it to the Moon assuming you have proper cooling. With the Raystorm rs360 I was able to get this chip to a stable 5Ghz, liquid cooling the CPU and the VRM's on my motherboard. Overclocking is nothing without performance though - how does the CPU perform? Excellent! I got a very noticeable framerate increase in all my games. Crysis 3 I can run completely maxed out with msaa on medium at 60fps (which some intel users can't even handle :o) Some minor pet peeves/issues with this CPU: 1) If you're doing overclocking, you will absolutely need a custom cooler. This is a very power hungry, very hot CPU at overclocked speeds. This thing has scarily overheated on me a few times already, I've gotten this to a stable 5Ghz, although I can run it at speeds of up to 5.4Ghz it simply gets too hot at anything else. Although the stock cooler is actually impressive having copper on it, it's still not going to do the job. Here's what I recommend per the speeds you are trying to reach based on my own experience and from what I've read on the web: - Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO or similar: 4.6Ghz - Closed loop cooler (such as the h100i): 4.8Ghz - Custom cooling kit: 5Ghz+ - At least a 600w PSU for anything above (this thing consumes alot of power overclocked) 2) AMD STILL SUCKS WITH HIGH SPEED RAM. If you're overclocking this thing even slightly, good luck getting the specified 1866Mhz RAM to work with it. I can only run mine at around 1700Mhz. I tried two modules at 8GB and four modules at 16GB. Could never get this to stably run 1866Mhz, even at stock CPU speeds. If you'r buying RAM stick with a 1600Mhz kit. Other than the power/heat issues and the RAM, this is a great CPU. I paid for a $200 CPU and it felt like I got what I paid for performance wise. Vs. Intel you will see alot of users complain that the "per core" performance isn't as good, and than an Intel i5 3550k will outperform this. Personally I don't give a crap. I'm not reverting my whole system over to Intel just because some silly benchmarks are slightly better. Besides the multi-threading of this CPU will blow away an i5, especially in DX11 games which do utilize all 8 cores. One more thing - vs the AMD 8320 I think this is a much better buy - $10-20 more and you're getting a CPU that's going to be much better in the overclocking department and the increased speeds are going to be much better in gaming. Overall definitely worth the money. Great CPU that will last years to come and AMD's future is rocky if you're waiting for the "next" best thing I think you should just go with this...
