AMD Phenom X3 8750 vs AMD Atholon X3 435 rana

The Athlon II is significantly faster than the Phenom I so it will definitely perform better in games where your CPU is the limiting factor.

Hi, get the Athlon II X3 435 for this reasons:

1- The Phenom X3 8750 is a old processor, so, is AM2+ and 65nm processor.
2- The Phenom X3 8750 is a 2.4GHz processor, the Athlon II X3 435 is a 2.9GHz processor, that with OC can get 3.5GHz or more
3- The Athlon II X3 435 is a 45nm processor, 95W processor and AM3 socket.
4- The Athlon II X3 435 is only $1,00 more expensive that the 8750.

Clock for clock Athlon II is slightly faster than Phenom I for most tasks, so since the Athlon II is clocked higher it'll perform better. You also get the benefits of 45nm for lower power consumption/heat on the Athlon II, DDR3 memory support, and higher overclocks.

they still sell the Phenom X3 8750?

i believe the X 435 OC better, I have mine at 3.3ghz with little effort.

The X3 435 is better.
If you really need the performance, you can go for a X4 630.

Newegg had the old 90nm Athlon X2 6000 Windsor core for sale recently. lol

Just cause AMD quit making it doesn't mean there aren't any left in the retail market.
