2.8ghz Pentium 4 - Oldie but Goodie
Review of Intel Pentium 4 2.8 GHz processor by hes_quadraphonic

Advantages: Cheap, Good Performace
Disadvantages: Not HT, L2 Cache could be bigger, Easy to install if you know how.

I've had this processor for nearly two years now, and following a cost benefit anaylsis, I still don't see the point in upgrading. It's a perfectly capable processor, and teamed with 1GB of memory, it performs well. Theres not a lot to say about this processor, and what will be said will be extreamly boring. I can see why processors don't have a lot of reviews, they're not exactly easy or fun to write about, but I'll give it my best shot. ----------General ...
...style interface meaning it is only comaptable with socket 478 motherboards(Though i believe you can buy an adapter for 478 chips to make the work with socket LLG775 motherboards - the newer but not newest design). The processor is 32-bit, has 512kb of L2 Cache and a FSB equivalent to 533mhz. This makes the processor relatively quick and very capable for everyday tasks and even gaming (when paired with a good graphics card). It is available in the ... Read review

E6750 - The midrange cpu to buy
Review of Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 / 2.66 GHz processor by RRD313

Advantages: fairly good price, dual core, 2.66 ghz, 4m L2 cache
Disadvantages: fan is somewhat hard to install

This E6750 is the processor running in my computer as I write this review. In my opinion I couldn't have chosen a better CPU for what I was looking for. I was looking to spend around 200 USD for a processor and I wanted it to be very powerful so that I could run demanding programs and all of the most recent games. This processor combined with my 8800 gts 320md graphics card put on a show when it comes to graphics displays. I have yet to be disappointed ... Read review

One of best amd dual core processors
Review of AMD Athlon 64 X2 5400+ / 2.8 GHz processor by neo1983

Advantages: Fast enough, Stable, Low power consupltion in idle
Disadvantages: No room for overclock, High power consuption in full load

...the last good offers that Amd launched in the market to compete with Core Duo processors. My tested version is built on 90 nm tired and true fabrication technology and has several good points, that worth mentioning. The good stuff: The performance is good, overall loses to core2 duo E6600 but by small distance and are some applications that really work better on this processor. The stability is perfect never had a single system crash. The ease ...
...consumption on idle: 9w Low price The not so good stuff: Loses to many applications to core 2 duo E6600 Relative high power consumption in full load 84-87w No room for overclock, if you reach 3100 Mhz you're lucky Conclusion: one of best Amd processors today ... Read review

Run stable and quiet.
Review of AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ / 2.2 GHz processor by pchenn

Advantages: Stable Temperature.
Disadvantages: -

...XP SP2. I like this AMD processor because have dual core system and more faster than Intel Pentium Core Duo 2.2Ghz. I use ECS GeForce6100PM-M2 mainboard, DDR2 1Ghz, onboard VGA sharing up to 512MB. Then I try run The Sims game and wow.... I don't believe it, run stable and quick load when play. I can play NBA Live 2007 game too without using PCI-E VGA card. This AMD processor very quiet and the temperature is always stable. I try it all using original ... Read review

Excellent value for Money
Review of Intel Pentium Dual Core E2160 / 1.8 GHz processor by cstewart08

Advantages: Quite Fast, Overclockable, Cheap
Disadvantages: 1mb cache

I have had this processor in my PC for around 7 months and it is probably the best value processor around. I put it i my first ever build and it was very easy to install and very fast,probably the fastest PC I had ever used! After a few days I messed aroung with overclocking and this is when I really unlocked its potential. I don't really have a clue about memory timings etc. so anything extra I could get out of it the better. I could get it up ...
...but its now sitting at 3Ghz as it has been for 7 months and it flies! I have played quite a few games with it including COD4, PES 2008, FIFA 08, GTA SA, Half Life 2 and more, very smoothly. I can also convert a 2hr film to DVD in around 50 mins, on my old computer it would take 4hrs. Overall a cheap and Cheerful processor ... Read review
