GREAT

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: Very solid and fast processor. The heatsink / fan is huge, but works very well. I have the 540J (basically the same model, just an older designation) and it is wonderful. My first one was a bad apple (which is fairly common) and intel replaced it free, and very quickly. They replaced my motherboard as well, to ensure a good working unit. Great support for the products from both Intel and Newegg!
Cons: The installation of the heatsink / fan unit can be rather tricky if you don't have experience with other P4's.
Other Thoughts: This is cheaper, and runs cooler than the "faster" rated P4's, but is not noticeably slower. Save the money -- buy this.

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: The speed was definitely noticeable since i was using only 256 ram and was running a little faster than another computer i had 2.0ghz with 896mb ram.
Cons: the cooler wasn't what i expected...but for the price of the processor, i'll consider an oversight on my part.
Other Thoughts: it'll be a long time before i'll need another processor.

Highlights

newegg Versatility, Performance and Reliability to Meet All Your Computing Needs
Everyone wants something different from their computer—work, play, Internet, music, learning and more. A PC featuring the Intel Pentium 4 Processor opens the door to many new experiences and is as versatile as you are.
newegg Greater Performance with Hyper-Threading Technology (HT Technology)
Hyper-threading enables multi-threaded software applications to execute two software threads in parallel, thereby improving system responsiveness. Intel Pentium 4 Processors enabled with HT Technology deliver performance and multitasking gains that result in increased productivity and efficiency.
newegg Scalability and Performance with Intel EM64T
Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T) can improve performance by allowing the system to address more than 4 GB of both virtual and physical memory. Intel EM64T also provides support for 64 bit computing to help handle the applications of tomorrow.
newegg Execute Disable Bit (EDB)
Combined with a supporting operating system, Intel's Execute Disable Bit can ward off certain malicious "buffer overflow" attacks. Execute Disable Bit allows the processor to classify areas in memory by where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables code execution, preventing damage or worm propagation.
