AMD has been slamming out new processors in the past years, tweaking and making their older processors even better and faster. With the launch of AMD's new Athlon II X2 240e processor, this is not an exception. The new AMD Athlon II X2 240e processor has been redesigned for those seeking very cool, and low power PCs. The new 240e are perfect for Home Theatre PCs, and other general applications like surfing the web, listening to music, and keeping up with friends and family. There is no doubt a processor that will run cool even with the quietest and lowest RPM fans on the market.This is not all however, the AMD Athlon II X2 240e processors have been designed to work optimaly on some of the new motherboards out there, like the Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P motherboard, which we are also taking a look at in this review. The GA-MA790FXT-UD5P motherboard has been built on the 790FX Chipset and can support up to the AM3 socket processors. It has been designed to work with 1600MHz DDR3 memory, however the 240e is built to work properly with 1066MHz memory.The AMD Athlon 240e is running for $77 USD as of the release date. The Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P however is running for $180 USD, which is a very reasonable price for a high overclocking and stable board. Without any further ado lets dig into this and see what this little chip and the Gigabyte motherboard can do compared to some high end processors currently on the market.
