Strengths: Product was as spec'd. My motherboard needed a bios update to stop error code on boot up. Asus states the bios was compatable, however it neede the newest beta to correctly boot up.
Weakness: Runs hot. USe aftermarket cooler
Processor was a definate upgrade from my orginal 530 cpu. Boot time was greatly reduced. Frame rates in BF2142 were increased. Web surfing speed was increased. My only suggestion is purchase a heavy duty cooler. The supplied stock cooler ran at full rpm durring most gaming times.
Good performance
