AMD FX-4130 reviewed

English translation:
“A noticeable difference in the new FX-4130 is the amount of cash from the third level, like his brother FX-4300, only 4 MB of shared cache is in the third level (the old FX-4130 are available at 8 MB in third level).”

Original quote:
“Една по-видима разлика е обемът на кеш от трето ниво – при новият FX-4130 подобно на неговият събрат FX-4300 е налице само 4 MB споделен кеш от трето ниво (при стария FX-4130 са налични 8 MB L3).”

AMD FX-4130: Bulldozer still has fuel

English translation:
"Cutting its L3 cache by half gave ‘wings' to the overclocking capabilities of this CPU. Its overclocking capabilities make it definitely able to be compared with much more expensive solutions. In summary, we are fully satisfied with this product, which costs around 110 euros, and proves to have a higher performance level than the model it replaces, maintaining the price."

Original quote:
"La cache L3 dimezzata ha ‘messo le ali’ alle capacità di overclock della CPU... Le potenzialità di overclock sono tali da rendere assolutamente competitiva questa soluzione con soluzioni decisamente più costose... Tirando le somme, possiamo ritenerci assolutamente soddisfatti da questo prodotto, che in un costo di circa 110€, si dimostra più prestazionale del modello che sostituisce mantenendone il prezzo finale."

Award: Silver award

AMD FX 4130 - refreshed quad-core for about 400 PLN

English translation:
"For about 400 PLN we get a little bit faster CPU then his predecessor, but with a little bit higher STRESS power consumption. As an advantage, we can count lower IDLE power consumption, better cooler and unlocked multiplier, which helps get impressive OC results."

Original quote:
"Za cenę około 400 zł otrzymujemy procesor nieco wydajniejszy od swojego poprzednika, ale też pobierający więcej energii przy obciążeniu. (…) Na plus można zaliczyć również niższy pobór energii w stanie spoczynku, jak i dołączony wydajniejszy radiator oraz odblokowany mnożnik, który pozwala na całkiem przyzwoite podkręcenie."

AMD refreshes an offer, model FX-4100 replaced by the FX-4130

English translation:
"TDP increased to 125W, but according to AMD, thanks to numerous improvements, the FX-4130 model at rest consumes less energy than the FX-4100, which it replaces."

Original quote:
"Współczynnik TDP wzrósł do 125W, ale zdaniem AMD, dzięki licznym usprawnieniom model FX-4130 w spoczynku pobiera mniej energii niż FX-4100, którego zastępuje."

AMD lowers the price of the FX-4130 and throws away FX-4100 model

English translation:
"The FX-4130 has advantage over its predecessor by slightly higher clocks, but it’s provided with two times less L3 cache and it also has a higher TDP - 125 W instead of 95 W. The last thing is not necessarily a disadvantage, because the higher TDP of the processor is standard with a better set of cooling. In addition, AMD ensures that in the final analysis, the FX-4130 should draw the same amount of power as its predecessor, although it needs more power under load, makes up with a slightly lower IDLE consumption."

Original quote:
"FX-4130 ma nad poprzednikiem przewagę w postaci nieco wyższych zegarów, jest za to wyposażony w dwa razy mniej pamięci podręcznej trzeciego poziomu, ma także wyższe TDP – 125 W zamiast 95 W. Ostatnia rzecz niekoniecznie musi być wadą, bo przez wyższe TDP procesor jest standardowo wyposażony w lepszy zestaw chłodzenia. W dodatku AMD zapewnia, że w ostatecznym rozrachunku FX-4130 powinien pobierać tyle samo prądu co poprzednik, bo chociaż potrzebuje więcej energii pod obciążeniem, nadrabia nieco niższym zużyciem w czasie spoczynku."
