AMD Athlon X4 845
About processor
The AMD Athlon X4 845 processor is a solid choice for a budget-friendly desktop CPU. With its 4 cores and 4 threads, it's capable of handling everyday tasks with ease, and even some light multi-tasking. The 28nm technology and 65W TDP make it an efficient and power-conscious option for those looking to build a cost-effective system.
In terms of performance, the Athlon X4 845 delivers decent results. With a Geekbench 6 Single Core score of 655 and a Multi Core score of 1656, it's clear that this processor is more than capable of handling most office work, web browsing, and light content creation tasks. While it may not be the best choice for high-end gaming or intensive professional workloads, it's a reliable and affordable option for the average user.
One potential drawback of the Athlon X4 845 is its lack of integrated graphics, meaning a dedicated GPU will be necessary for any graphics-intensive tasks. Additionally, the 28nm technology may be seen as outdated compared to more modern processors. However, for those on a tight budget, the AMD Athlon X4 845 offers solid performance and value for the price.
