AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core CPU Sorry I cannot say what I connected this chip to so as to get a good rating. Big brother won't let me mention other products that make this processor better. Kinda makes these reviews a bit worthless, but so be it. Oddly enough they sell what I was going to mention...

Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H Motherboard This gigabyte motherboard is awesome and have overclocked the onboard graphics a little and it works perfect and runs all my older games great, the only thing you would have to adjust is the clock speed of the gpu which had my phenom x4 at 1ghz which can be fixed by raising the multiplier

Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H Motherboard Well this is my first built PC. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to build your own PC. But the instructions never mentioned that in order to power up the board you need to plug power from the power supply into the 8-pin 12 volt near the CPU. But the power supply never had an 8-pin. I ran into some serious frustration when I tried to boot this thing up! Luckily I took initiative and plugged the 4-pin into the 8 pin! Wow! Who ever would have thought that you could use a 4-pin in an 8-pin. I never did. The instructions never mentioned that ugh! Well lucky for me I did just that and got it up and running. The CPU on this thing kicks butt! No complaints! I can now run software that would barely run on my old ASUS mother board. Very happy with this product.

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core CPU This processor with all its cores and sheer processing power, next to my HD 4850 gives me ultimate gaming power. With those specs I could run Crisis with 43.23 FPS. It is an amazing processor, although can get a bit hot. Without opening my case and three fans directing air flow it was getting in the high fifties, which is bad since its safe operating temp is 62 or so degrees. I fixed the problem though so I am happy for now. Definitely worth the buy people!

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core CPU I notice a marked improvement when processing I notice a marked improvement when processing avi and DVD files into mov (for my iTouch). All 4 cores scream in the process and the temperature of the cores goes up by 10 degrees or more. Still well within the maximum specs and never goes over 54 degrees (idling at around 32 degrees)

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core CPU nice. no problems on this build. It's so much faster than the 955 build I did a couple of months ago, it's not even in the same ball park. used an MSI board and hyper X ram.... no vid card

Corsair Dominator 4096MB PC8500 DDR2 Memory I bought these with a Q8200 quad core and a 64 bit copy of Windows 7. I needed a little more than 2 gig of memory with all of the applications that I run. So far there are no problems and it's actually running stable with the FSB OC'd at 1200mhz with everything stock. Don't know how long that will last but when I get my tax return, I am building a i7 system anyways.:-P

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core CPU I've always like AMD better than Intel since my first pc build back in 2002 with an Athlon CPU. I've had not had any problems with this CPU. I've tried to overclock to 4Ghz, but it won't be stable or pass Prime95. I'm keeping it steady at 3.6Ghz currently with no problems. Anything higher than 3.6Ghz will cause blue screens and crashes.

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core CPU I ran Crysis in very high Setting without problems. Its the CPU that provide you more power for your money.

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core CPU Not really sure how Intel is still around, while trying to charge us a arm and a leg for processors. AMD has allow families to budget in their processors. For this I am greatful. Guys, this processor rocks. Overclocking is a snip. From 34001.9Mhz to 3999.9 no prob. Have not pushed the cores to a 20% increase, but I'm sure they'll dance when given the chance! A gamers MUST!

Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H Motherboard Very bland board for the price.

Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H Motherboard While i was lucky and the board worked, i didnt think it was going to when i got it. The vga, dvi, and keyboard port was bent back and the motherboard was bent on that edge at a 30degree angle. with a little bending back i got the board to fit and surprisingly it worked. just had issues with xp booting and installing because of sata not being in IDE mode

Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H Motherboard With a Phenom II 955, Windows 7 Pro went on without so much as a hiccup. Drivers all installed in a single pass with the CD. For my purposes, I couldn't be happier. I also use Gigabyte boards for server 2008 and sql server 2008. Goodbye Asus and MSI.
