Is the AMD FX-8300 Good?
The product is highly rated for its value, meaning its total efficient is high per the cost to the consumer. The FX-8300 does three things very well. Gaming, video/audio encoding, and parallel tasks such as desktop or work productivity apps.
What is CPU clock ratio in BIOS?
CPU Core Ratio, or multiplier, determines the speed of your CPU. The overall speed of your processor is calculated by multiplying the base clock speed (BCLK) by this ratio. For example, a BCLK of 100MHz multiplied by a CPU core ratio of 45 would result in a CPU speed of 4,500MHz, or 4.5GHz.

What’s the difference between AMD FX 8150 and 8350?
The table above supports that characterization. It’s also important to note that AMD’s pricing this time around is far more sensible. While the FX-8150 debuted at $245, the 8350 drops that price to $199 putting it around $40 less than the Core i5 3570K.
Why did AMD choose to use the Vishera core?
With Vishera, AMD was in a difficult position: it had to drive performance up without blowing through its 125W TDP. As the Piledriver cores were designed to do just that, Vishera benefitted. Remember that Piledriver was predominantly built to take this new architecture into mobile.
Is the AMD Vishera based on the Brazos platform?
As promised we’ve now had multiple generations of each platform ship from AMD. Brazos had a mild update, Llano paved the way for Trinity which is now shipping, and around a year after Zambezi’s launch we have Vishera: the Piledriver based AMD FX successor.
