5 out of 5 stars Where's the 10 star option?   August 28, 2010
Cody Howland
Intel has outdone themselves again. It is an extremely fast processor that makes computing so much more enjoyable. It has a base clock frequency of 2.66GHz, but with Turbo Boost, this CPU can reach speeds up to 3.2GHz without overclocking. I am able to multitask more and spend less time staring at an hour glass.

I use this processor on my high performance system, and everything runs really fast. From Roxio 2010 to extreme gaming, this processor does it all.

I guess the saying is true: "Great computing starts with Intel inside" -Intel Advertisement



5 out of 5 stars Small bump and as fast as the i7-860!   August 17, 2010
BobD (The Villages, Fl)
This is the BEST processor for the money right now. It flat out performs with 4 complete cores (quad core). If your motherboard comes with a utility to bump up the clock speed to 2.8 GHz, it will perform within a hair of the i7-860 at $100 less cost. If you do not want to bump it, you will still never notice the difference from an i7-860 unless you use a sensitive CPU benchmark. Win 7 performance Index gives it the same CPU score as the i7-860 when both are at stock speed - it's that close. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars The little processor that can   August 3, 2010
Howard
Its amazing the value for money you get with this processor. I am stepping up from the Core 2 8400 and this thing blows it away. I was torn between this and the i7 860. Believe me, unless you are into serious media production..... you won't miss the hyperthreading. Save the 80+ Bucks and put it towards a SSD drive or a better graphics card.

Rogelio Pamal
The processor is a must have, average price with great performance. The temperature at idle is 30-32 and full use is 40-42, but i install a hyper plus heatsink. The stock cooler looks.....cheap.
