powerfull and effecient 2 core cpu
Reviewed by Mike Thompson. Review Posted 23/03/2008
energy effecient and very powerful..
this new 45nm cpu runs at only 25c inside my Antec Nine hundred Case! i increased the cpu frequency to 337ghz to get 3.2ghz and it still shows 25c very cool it looks to be completely safe at 3.4ghz as well albeit at slightly higher 30c still cool though noticed nothing untoward at this speed, i run it at 3.2ghz just slightly higher as is all i need.
with - Gigabyte S775 Intel P35 DDR3 ATX mobo, and 6GB of OCZ 240DIMM PC3-10666 1333MHz DDR3, runs cool very quick no probs at all, impressed!

This rocks
Reviewed by Craig. Review Posted 19/02/2008
Really, Intel have come up with the goods with this one. Up to 4.2GHz, 55Deg under load, could easily go higher but there's no need right now.
Would recommend to anyone

Nice, but over-priced
Reviewed by niki. Review Posted 13/06/2010
Lovely processor, but how on earth are they justifying these prices when a more powerful i5 is available at the same price?
