Overview

AMD Phenom X4 9850

Editors rating
Rating: 6.7
Verdict

AMD's new Phenom X4 9850 is overpriced and outclassed compared to its Intel-based quad-core competition. If PC vendors can use this chip to make cheap systems (as they did with older Phenoms), we might have nicer things to say; but as a DIY part at this price, we can't recommend AMD's latest quad-core CPU.

Typical price

£ 117
