Strengths: Fast, good for multiple tasking, very good for multimedia, not bad for gaming.
Weaknesses: It gets hot easy when you OC it to the max.
Summary: This CPU is fine if you are not trying to Overclock it above 3.1ghz.I managed to OC it from 2.8Ghz to 3.12Ghz using standard fan which i got with 5600 in retail box, temp is 40c-45c.I'll change it to aftermarket fan, to lower the temp.After all for $140 you get preety much good CPU for all things you want to use like games, software, internet, multimedia.Of course it's not only CPU what makes your machine fast ,but definitely i'm recommending AMD 5600 because it can satisfy standard user needs.

Strengths: Fast, Stable& Cheaper than Intel
Weaknesses: Found non so far
Summary: I've been running the chip with a 8800GT gpu& 3gig ram on a asus m2ne sli board for a while and I'm realy impressed with it. From tetris to Flightsim X, its running smooth all the way. If you want the performance but same a bit of money, this is your answer!

Time with product:
Strengths: low cost
Weaknesses: fan is not as good as Intel's
Summary: I bought this around 149. It was cheaper than Intels for the same Ghz. Fan was simple one. No frills. Cpu is fast and easy to install. Just strap the bands against two plastic parts. I am scared that if the plastic pieces break off, then the fan would no longer hold the cpu anymore. Thermal grease is pre-applied so no need to buy any. cpu easy to install.

Strengths: inexpensive compared to Intel
Weaknesses: i prefer the 4 pin fan connectors versus the clip.
Summary: Install was smooth. Thou initially when I first turned on, the motherboard was beeping. But once I turned it off and on , it ran through POST just fine. Intel OEM fan seems better than AMD's included fan. Fan came with thermal grease already on the base. Cant help with OC as I have never done it.

Strengths: very, very fast.
Weaknesses: none for me
Summary: not only is this processor cheaper than the equivalent core 2 duo, but it seemed to me that good am2 motherboards are also cheaper than equivalent intel motherboards, which further reduces the total cost of building your own system. I'm not an overclocker or hardcore gamer, so I can't comment about that. 90nm technology rather than 65nm increases power consumption, but my system still runs quite cool.
