Review on ๐Ÿ’ป High-performance Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor E6600 3.06GHz with 2MB LGA775 CPU - Retail Package BX80571E6600 by Austin Hearshman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

First CPU build

BX80571E6600 This was my first build and like other newbies I wanted better but had to settle for what I could afford. After looking at and comparing the processors, I settled on the E6600. At the time it was in the middle of the road, as were the processors, but it had the power. Equipped with microboard with 4 GB RAM, 750 W power supply, 1 TB-HHD, XFX-NiV-9600GTO 750M, graphics card. With this setup I have found that I can play all my games at almost full performance except for Crysis2 or some new games that are coming out. I forgot to mention that this was done using a build program for Windows XP Pro - System 3. In fact I'm typing this on the same machine a few years later.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
