What customers say about "Cache And Memory Specifications"

AMD FX-8350 CPU Processor

Performance for the price, reliability, speed, good sized cache. Great processor.
The cores and cache are strong enough to handle single-threaded applications impressively.
This CPU is definitely powerful. The CPU has a large cache which helps in performance.
Plenty of L2 and L3 Cache. Highly recommend.
Huge cache capacity really allow it to perform under large amounts of pressure.

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T CPU Processor

The memory controller can get up to DDR2000 without issue.
That L3 Cache makes quite a difference. Amazing capacity of cache.
Good power, cache, and heat parameters, and fast speed capacity.
Wish it had more Cache for the amount of cores though.
It would've been better if it had as much L3 cache size as the Intel Core i7 980X Extreme Edition.
