AMD Athlon X2 7850 Black Edition AM2+ CPU Review @ OCC and other reviews from around the web can be found by visiting our forums!

“While the AMD Athlon X2 7850 might not be as fast as the triple and quad core processors in raw power, it does hold its own – beating out the Athlon X2 7750 in the majority of the tests, as well as the Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 in some as well. Overall, I was impressed with the increased performance of the X2 7850 in the dual core sector. With all of the top end processors released lately, the mid-range has been forgotten, and it is nice to see a refresh available for those who need a budget conscious processor. If you are in the market for a dual core processor, or looking for a great priced processor for that family computer, then the AMD Athlon X2 7850 will fit that bill nicely.”
