Review on πŸ’» Enhanced Intel Xeon X3440 CPU 2.53 GHz, 8 MB Cache, LGA1156 Socket by Kim Chong ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well done, but I wont buy any more.

Despite the low base frequency, it easily accelerates to 3.6-4GHz, which allows you to have high FPS in almost any game at the moment. All in all a great choice if you happen to have a socket 1156 motherboard.

Pros
  • Price. 4 cores / 8 threads. Accelerates well. At the time of writing this review, overclocking reveals any graphics card except 980ti / gtx 1070 / gtx 1080.
Cons
  • Hot, overclocking requires good cooling with at least 3-4 tubes and (preferably) scalping with replacement of thermal paste under the cover. No AVX (not required for games).

The price of a set of motherboard and processor on Ali is about 6000. Overclocked to 4GHz. catches up with the i7 2600 in performance. An excellent option for a budget computer.
