I bought the Athlon II 620 a while back, and have been perfectly happy with it for gaming and general tasking. I also run Adobe's CS4, and have had no speed issues with it at all. The 640 has a slightly higher clock speed, so should be even better. I always recommend AMD for low budget (sub $1000) builds, and this is exactly that situation.

Not really but a nice feature to have for upgrades in a year or two when the hardware becomes more common.
