The gaming performance of Athlon II X4 620 is very similar to the Q8200. However the encoding performance of the Athlon II X4 620 is better than the Q8200 and both processors trade blows in the rendering department. The reviewers also managed a 1ghz overclock too for the Athlon II X4 620 and it is not even a Black Edition processor!!
The Athlon II X4 620 was available for £78 until Ebuyer pulled the web-page:

With a 785G based motherboard one of these Athlon II X4 processors would be a nice and relatively cheap system for general purpose duties!! Hopefully the 45w versions will also be released soon!![]()
