5 of 5 An awesome CPU Saturday, April 11, 2009 Jason from Georgia
Makes the i7 940 really questionable to get over this CPU. This CPU can be overclocked to equal and/or pass the i7 940 and possibly the 965 EE. I built my latest PC around this CPU and while it is a great CPU, the performance can probably be matched or surpasses by cheaper CPUs. However, they will not offer the same power gains (although if you OC them, you'll probably not worry about it anyway). Also, the chipset for these CPUs are new, so you'll need a new motherboard which means more $$$.
Functionality wise, there are none better than this CPU. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Love the speed! Wednesday, March 18, 2009 John from Bethesda, MD
Amazing processor. Couldn't ask for more and it's silly fast at stock speeds - imagine what a little overclocking could do! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Lightning fast Wednesday, February 04, 2009 frank from bethel, ct
Very fast processor, and at an affordable price. This processor will handle anything that 90% of the people out there would throw at it. There is plenty of room for overclocking as well. Was this review helpful?
