I've been buying since the the Phenom II days with the X3 720. One could easily unlock their 4th core for an easy performance boost. Most of the time it'd work without a hassle.

My first AMD was a 386-40. Had several of their CPUs since. But there were a few years there that it was real tough to pick AMD.
