...The E6300 is the cheapest of Intel's Core 2 Duo's with an average price range of around £120 and runs at a steady 1.86Ghz with 2 physical cores and a FSB of 1,066MHZ. Now before I loose you in techno jargon I will explain what the E6300 basically is. The E6300 is Intels baby CPU from there new(ish) line of Core 2 Duos, although far from a baby this new dawn in Core architecture's, enables the processors to run faster, cooler and more efficently than ever before. Intels Core architecture has created a greater core efficency, allowing the cores to run at lower frequencies than standard processors which use the Net-Burst Architecture. This means that computers using the Core 2 Duo's, will experience a greater efficency when using them.

Advantages: Speed and performance is incredible
Disadvantages: None

...The Intel's Core 2 Duo, a amazing processor the essential to every computer. It runs at a steady 1.86Ghz with 2 physical cores its just great. I have one in my apple Imac, and the speed is so fast, it loads up and down immediatley and is great especially for all you game players when you are fed up of it not running smoothly. I used to have a windows based pc without this technology and it took me at least 5/10 minutes to load up then wait for the applications to load plus anti virus even longer, when with this my pc is up and running easily in under a minute. This is the way forward. delivering optimized power efficient computing and breakthrough dual-core performance with amazingly low power consumption.

Advantages: fast and responsive (though ciao's still slow)
Disadvantages: ummm it's not a quad core

...had this cpu for week now happy with the performance in desktop applications, and in gaming; in counter strike source my fps is now between 60-70 running the cpu at stock which is ace. The three best aspects of this processor is the dual core, which helps immensely with multi tasking so if you are like me get bored easily and try and do many things at once this cpu will deal with it fine. Secondly the cache size is a really healthy 2mb which delfinately helps with gaming. Thirdly the bus speed is 1066 mhz so the processor communicates with the other components at a very fast rate. I would reccomend this product wiothout hesitation. By the way I got mine on ebay for sixty pounds (oem) so it's worth shopping around for a bargain.... Read review
