The Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3Ghz CPU is a triumph of computing technology, It combines cool running temperatures, Good clock speeds and Great performance for a low affordable price.

These CPU's are well suited to Gaming applications due to their calculation proccess and their Overclockability, This CPU will run all modern games and future games with ease! providing great FPS Rates and great gaming enjoyment, speeds of 3.6Ghz + can be achieved easily on stock cooling.

With after-market cooling much higher clock speeds can be achieved. This CPU is very stable and reliable even when overclocked.

I was originally hooked on AMD CPU's and was adament that they provided better gaming performance, However after i finaly took the leap to see what all the fuss was about with the Intel C2D CPU's i have never looked back, These CPU's far out-perform their AMD Rivals. Although there are advantages to the AMD CPU's i would still much advise the Intel CPU's as i believe their Pro's outweigh the Pros of the AMD CPU's.

These CPU's are also well suited to office and design applications as they can handle multiple applications with ease.

Due to it being the socket 775 type the installation is also incredibly easy. If you are thinking about getting this CPU i want you to STOP! Just go out and buy it, you wont be dissapointed!

Overall i rate this product as 5 out 5 due to its amazing performance, reliabilty and value for money
