Overview of AMD Athlon II X2 250
The processor was released in 2009 for motherboards with Socket AM3. The model belongs to the office performance CPU in the line of processors created for the AM3 platform, has 2 cores with a frequency of 3000 megahertz and a heat dissipation of 65W, which will require a sparing cooling system(95W+). AMD Athlon II X2 250 is made according to the 45nm technology standards and carries the Regor architecture. To date, this processor is not able to provide comfortable gaming performance: even in older GTA V and Tomb Raider 2013 projects, in complex scenes (with a lot of moving objects, explosions and other special effects), the frame rate per second will drop to 15-20, the process in this case, it will be accompanied by “cutters” (stops of the picture) and jerks.
