I have a 7 year old PC that i originally built with a Core 2 Duo processor. I wanted to speed it up a little without having to change the motherboard. This Core 2 quad processor offers 2 extra cores compared to the old Core 2 Duo, and a faster clock speed. This upgrade, together with some additional RAM, has given the PC a new lease of life. I’m very pleased with the result. Thank you.

I was a building study computer with some second handle motherboard , case, power supply, hard drive, there was no CPU's so I checked via motherboard web site to see what it took I had always builded core 2 duo so I saw that the motherboard supported Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 3 GHZ 12MB Socket 775 so I checked on ebay and found one for a good price, it came quite quickly and was fitted very quickly. And the system was up and running in no time I just install windows 7 64 bit and office 2007 it is running like a dream

Quad Core if your Mobo can take it is an ideal upgrade from a Dual Core for old skool pcs but if your hoping to improve Windows 10 performance then you have to be a Sheep and follow the rest by upgrading your main box of tricks! Performance is just below i3 and that's pretty limited too!!! Also you will need to upgrade your cooling as this little chip runs hot hot hot!!!👍
