I would just get a 6000+ no reason paying for the unlocked multiplier when the 6000+ has higher clocks at stock. I have one I got mine at 3.2ghz I could prolly do higher but I dont see why I would, im getting great performance with it.

You might as well just go for the 6000 instead of the fx.

At stock speeds, the X2 6000+ is faster - the FX chip is of higher binning quality and has an unlocked multiplier, but those features aren't interesting for someone who's not overclocking (or running a server).

Just like RayvinAzn mentioned, the X2 6000+ is better for this, the higher the quality and an unlocked multiplier are both features that will increase the OC potential by a significant margin.

If you're spending that much money on a CPU, why are you going AMD? :|

I agree for the price of a FX you can get a E6850
