Awesome Processor, Extreme Low Power

white Reviewed By: noipv4 on 4/13/2008
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: This thing can be Clocked @ 2.93 GHz and undervolted to 1.2V to reduce the power consumption like crazy.
Also it easily overclocks to 3.2GHz @ 1.32V and to 3.4GHz @ 1.45V.

This is the best processor for playing games and accelerate single threaded applications.
Cons: The high price that one has to pay for the best silicon die.
Other Thoughts: It's the best dual core!!!

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: Ok, just look at that price! Its incredible! I mean, seriously, its so cheap. Especially against those really REALLY slow Q6600's that are ONLY clocked at 2.4 Ghz and can be overlcocked to ONLY 3.4 Ghz with a simple bios setting... I mean seriously, its not like the Q6600's are QUAD CORE or anything, and they SURE WON'T BE ABLE TO RUN FUTURE APPS. And just look at those E8400's... they only OC to 4.2 Ghz on STOCK COOLNG. This processor is sure a great deal.. the price and everything!
Cons: There are NO CONS AT ALL! Its just so speedy and I can't find a better price.
Other Thoughts: Frigging ret@rds... this proc $uck$, everyone that bought this was a ret@rd.
