I have a Bulldozer CPU in my main desktop machine, it works fine for what I use it for and I&#x27;m happy with what I paid for it. I wouldn&#x27;t have got nearly as many cores in an Intel CPU at the same price point.<p>I am mainly using it to compile software though, which makes good use of multiple cores, probably closer to a &quot;server&quot; workload than a &quot;desktop&quot; one.
