Good cheap upgrade

It's great value if you need a bit more performance and have a socket 775 motherboard. With a geforce 1050ti installed I am able to play Forza 4 horizon in high detail. Not bad at all. Performance is about 1/2 an Intel i5 in benchmarks but my machine is definitely quicker than with the Intel 8300. Only 30 quid. To get much more performance would mean new motherboard and probably over 150.Read full review

Budget savvy upgrade.

Paired with a decent(ish) graphics card it will run games that it officially doesn't reach min specs for. Overclocked a little, to match the q9560 at least & that graphics, most games well at 1080.

Dual CPU replacement

it was ordered to replace a dual core, works a treat and although the speed is slightly slower than the previous CPU, the PC runs faster,

Second hand, but definitely not second rate :-)

Arrived safely, worked fine, has given my old system quite a boost.

Great CPU,

Pulled out my 2 core processor and placed in this 4 core. Also changed my stock Intel cooler with aftermarket. Gived my system second life and hope that my efforts will be worth of all this change. I am not big game player but hope that will be able to play some 2011-1014 games. Tested with cpu-z(stress test) and speedfan(rpm and temperature) and everything looks good.Read full review
