Unlocked AMD FX 4170 Quad-Core Processor

Offering unparalleled multitasking and pure core performance, the new FX-series processor from AMD utilizes AMD Turbo CORE technology to automatically boost performance when you need it most to handle your workload. And it’s unlocked and overclockable with the easy-to-use AMD OverDrive software.

The 4.2 GHz AMD FX 4170 processor can boost its power up to 4.3 GHz AMD Turbo CORE technology, and it features both a 4 MB L2 cache and an 8 MB L3 cache. With AMD Turbo CORE Technology, when an FX series processor is running below its thermal limit, active cores are boosted in speed to improve overall performance. This is a dynamic and automatic process–just sit back and let the AMD FX series processor deliver a great computing experience for any task.

Unlocked for Easy Overclocking

With an unlocked FX processor and AMD Overdrive software, fine-tuned and exceptional overclocked performance are just a few mouse clicks away. Overclocking is the process of changing settings to cause a component to operate faster than the manufacturer’s specifications.

With AMD Overdrive software, a processor can be overclocked, tested for stability and the effects directly monitored, live. For the novice, overclocking is as easy as moving a performance slider and pushing a button to auto-tune the clock settings. That’s it!

For advanced overclockers, AMD Overdrive allows per core setting of multipliers, changing the HT multiplier, adjusting PCIe Speed, and much more. The integrated benchmark provides a reliable performance score, while the built-in stress tests determine system stability.

Dual Radeon HD 6570 Graphics

This system uses not just one, but two Radeon HD 6570 Graphics cards, in a CrossFireX configuration to provide amazing frame rates, multi-monitor support and more. Each graphics card offers a 650 MHz engine clock and 1000 MHz base memory clock for raw speed, plus 480 Stream Processing Units for rendering power as well as 1 GB on each card. Other features include Shader Model 5.0, DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.1 support for amazing realism and immersive gaming worlds. AMD Eyefinity multi-display technology support for expansive viewing configurations (up to four simultaneous displays), and AMD HD3D technology–enabling 3D display capabilities for many PC applications and experiences.

AMD CrossFireX Technology

Unlocking game-dominating power, AMD CrossFireX harnesses the power of two or more discrete graphics cards working in parallel to dramatically improve gaming performance. By combining the intelligent software algorithms of the AMD Catalyst suite with dedicated scaling logic in each AMD graphics processor, a gaming rig equipped with AMD CrossFireX technology can deliver up to four times the performance of a system with a single graphics card. That’s performance you can count on to build your empire, take the pole position or keep your platoon alive.
