AMD Athlon II X4 615e 2.5 GHz Energy Efficient Socket AM3 desktop CPU AD615EHDK42GMHere is a 64-bit Socket AM3 quad-core CPU from AMD running at 2500 MHz which draws only 45W of power. This one is known as the Athlon II X4 615e. AMD\'s part number is AD615EHDK42GM. It is in demand as one of the few quad core upgrade CPUs for All-in-One or small desktop systems with weak power supplies.It uses the \"Propus\" core and 45 nanometer traces. It includes 2MB of L2 cache and its own memory controller for DDR2 or DDR3 SDRAM with a 2.0 GHz Hyper Transport Link. It draws 45W of power, not much more than a typical laptop CPU draws. If you have a socket AM3 motherboard, it also supports DDR3 memory, and works with DDR2 memory in a compatible Socket AM2+ motherboard.This CPU is compatible with most AMD socket AM3 systems (and many socket AM2+ desktop systems), but the buyer should check their system documentation for compatibility. A BIOS upgrade may be necessary. If you are not sure, ask me. I would rather tell you \"no\" than waste our time for a return over compatibility.You will receive only the CPU as pictured here (but not the exact one). A heatsink and a fan are required but not included with this item. If you need a small tube of thermal paste, just let me know at the time of payment.
Your CPU will arrive working with all pins straight and as pictured. I have made sure it will drop into a socket AM3, and have inserted the pins in a protective foam pad and enclosed it in a plastic clamshell for shipping.
I welcome questions from interested buyers and offer a 30 day return privilege. I will consolidate shipping for winners of multiple items within 3 days.
Shipping to any address in the U.S. with a zip code is FREE via USPS first class mail. I ship only to the address PayPal gives me. I offer inexpensive USPS first class international shipping everywhere else, if you don\'t mind the delay and lack of meaningful tracking.
International buyers: You are responsible for paying any additional customs duties or VAT your country may charge you.

The processor you are purchasing is a delicate part which two different people have inspected. Each of them was able to insert this CPU into an appropriate socket, but we probably have more experience than you. Please do not be offended if we include some installation instructions.
Here\'s the technique we use to straighten pins. It requires sunlight, a magnifier, a utility blade and perhaps a safety pin. First, hold the CPU at about a 10 degree angle to the socket and see if you can insert the outer row of pins for only one edge. If you feel any resistance, do not push down. The resistance point helps you locate the troublesome area. Use the utility blade along the sides of the pins to push up any pin that isn\'t upright. (If the pin is almost flattened you can raise up the end by inserting a safety pin underneath it and lifting the back of the safety pin). Then use the side of the utility blade to make the CPU pin stand up perpendicular to the base, in a line the other pins in that row. Try to avoid any pressure near the base of the pin (which is where they break off). Repeat this process for each of the 4 edges. Then decrease the angle so the inner rows of pins go in the holes and on all 4 sides. Again, try to locate any resistance points for each side and repeat as necessary. Eventually you should be able to use the CPU. Do not spend too much time on this.
