Installed the AMD Opteron 1389 on a Foxconn A6GMV motherboard with an AMD 690G chipset, 4g Gskill rip jaws DDR3 1333 CAS 7 memory. The cpu support list for my mobo did not list this cpu as compatible, however the bios detected it 100% correct, it even showed the faster 2200mhz HT speed, the cpu passed all linux stress tests with no errors unlike the Athlon 2 it replaced. A great chip for AM3 motherboards, I am likely to try and find a reason to purchase another one. :) CPU is being used for a linux router running, IPFire 2.19 - Core Update 107 on a 75m connection up and down.

These Opteron 1389's are a great budget Quad Core with 12GB/s DDR2 memory performance and upwards of 18GB/s on DDR3. The memory controller prefers 1333 max, so no more. High quality ram that is stable at low timings is ideal since the timings need to be dialed in just right for overclocking. Not to mention it can do 3.625Ghz easily on 2x memory modules, with AMD 880G : 4x modules is tricky with overclocking. Using this CPU at 3.625Ghz and HT/ NB at 2750Mhz on AMD RX 480 8GB at 1,416Mhz hits 71fps test 1 & 60fps test 2. So very solid gaming performance as well. Great buy, so yes I recommend it. If you want unlocked Multi... Pay more and go Phenom II X4 965/ 970 or just FX-8 Core.

A very good alternative upgrade path for people concerning about power consumption of Phenom II x4 or even x6. Just upgraded a 700e with it. Good performance boost with smaller power demand increasing, this is a good upgrade without needing new set of hardware.

Very pleased. works great!!! super fast, running a home server on an asus board 64bit system 12gig RAM, opteron will work on most new motherboard with correct socket. not much info through manufacturers but new ASUS or Gigabyte mobos will work fantastic !!! well worth it.
