no

if you want to spend 630 on a cpu, get the x2 4400, sure your losing out on 0.2 ghz, but your getting a 2nd cpu as well (and 0.9micron process so it will overclock a lot better)

as well the fx-53 is socket 940, do you have a socket 940 board? you have to use registered ecc (error correcting ram) for it

 

[coomar]

start here

entry value-->amd64 venice 3000+

high-end single core-->san diego 3700+

you can might get an fx-55 for 650 US on the FS/FT forum

best performance-->x2 4400 (dual-core)

=/ don't blow 700 on an old cpu...get the latest X2 amd 64 chips IMO. not worth spending money on old technology ._., just follow coomar's advice ! He is right on the spot 🙂 😉
