Pros: Good performance, High Caches, Dual Core, overclockable, much more efficient and stable than previous intel models

Cons: pricey but you pay for quality, dual core isnt used to full potential but thats not really the cpus fault

Overall Review: This Cpu was a great buy for me. I was always an AMD man until recently when i gave these new intel chips a go and they are a good buy to the least. It helps me maintain my sites and play games and do other chores with its new arcitecture and performance. www.hostpixhere.com is one of them !
