That's not trash. The Phenom II's were pretty good. And yes, it should do quite well with the 212 EVO. Good luck!

lol ok thank you seems like everyone on here hate AMD.

It's not that we hate AMD. We just think that if you're upgrading, Intel has better options at the same price ranges. AMD does have some good CPUs, they just tend to fall a bit short to Intel's CPUs when it comes to gaming performance.

Seems crazy that people 'hate' a CPU manufacturer. There is nothing wrong with AMD cpu's, they are just not good value for money if your buying a new one at the moment.

I have the phenom II x6 1090t it's very easy to overclock

lol thats why when i upgrade i will be moving over to Intel.

I have my 1045t OC'ed to 3.4 Ghz and could go higher with better cooling and a vcore bump.

It's been great for the occasional HD video editing that I do.
