I was a bit apprehensive about replacing a Pentium with a Xeon but this supplier is experienced with this. For £12 I thought probably worth the risk. My other concern was would it be noticeably faster? Using Windows Experience Index and CPUZ I took my starting results. The PC was an old Dell that only clocked 4 on the CPU index with a Pentium 4 single core HT processor. I popped the Xeon in the socket and fired it up. Wow, the Windows CPU index and the RAM index went to 7.1! The scale is nonlinear so 7 is about 5 times faster than 4. This actually puts the machine up with the low end Socket 1155 CPUs. I am going to swap out a Core 2 Duo in an HP Compaq Presario. That machine has a decent gaming graphics card but getting bogged down on the CPU. This will fix it.

With this being advertised as better than a q6600 where reality is it is the exact same except this is made for servers so does last that bit longer with it being overclocked to what a q6600 would but absolute no performance differences what so ever, just go for the better Xeon with a 775 adapter instead way better performance

Upgraded from a Q9400 cpu and this Xeon provided a worthwhile increase in performance. Computer boots quicker and applications open quickly. Excellent value for money.
