What customers say about "Details"

Intel Core i5-4590 CPU Processor

It's a a great option, even using the stock Intel cooler provided.
Using the attached CPU fan and I'm happy with that as well.
It works good enough for most HD gaming, overkill for browsing and other similar tasks.
Temperature on idle is great. Good for gaming and video editing software.
I bought this CPU for my first build and paired it with an MSI motherboard. So far so good!

AMD Opteron 6378 CPU Processor

Good chip, a replacement was easy for me.
I Change my 6276 CPU to 6378 and get about 25% more performance. It works stably.
I installed all the latest BIOS, everything is ok.
Chip has great power efficiency.
If the processor exceeds its maximum operating temperature, an accidental reset may occur.

What customers say about "Technical Specifications"

Intel Core i5-4590 CPU Processor

I went from a 2.6ghz to this 3.3ghz and it makes a big difference.
With the i5-4590, you get better speed at a lower clock rate.
Using this with my Asus Z97-A mobo and Corsair VP 16GB 2133MHz memory and using AI Suite 3 optimization features am achieving speeds close to 3.9 GHz.
The upgrade from the i3 to this i5 CPU in my Alienware Alpha is a huge improvement.
I bought this processor for a budget PC build and it is working great.

AMD Opteron 6378 CPU Processor

Installed on the server, works great.
64-bit allows more than 4 GB, which improves performance. I am satisfied.
More threads lead to higher performance and better simultaneous execution of multiple tasks. That's great for work.
The main plus for me is that the processor has dynamic frequency scaling.
This is a great CPU given its modern instruction set and good FLOPs.

What customers say about "Cache And Memory Specifications"

Intel Core i5-4590 CPU Processor

Set in my motherboard and 1600hz DDR3 RAM, works great.
I installed with Kingston HyperX 3k, the performance of this processor is great.
Solid processor for a great price. 6Mb cache that's Wow!
Supports 32GB ram and it works wonderfully!
This is a great processor, it runs every game. Thanks Intel's smart cache memory.

AMD Opteron 6378 CPU Processor

In the processor I like the 16MB cache as more data can be stored in the L2 cache for access by each processor core.
Using 1600MHz ram, works well.
The system based on Opteron 62xx and a lot of DDR3 memory!
All cache levels work well and show the full amount of memory in tests.
