Review on High-Performance Intel Pentium E5300 2.6GHz Processor with 2 MB Cache (LGA775 Socket) by Justin Abreu

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great processor! Happy Intel customer!

I've been with Intel since my first computer. I've always been happy with their products, not only because they work well, but also because their products are built to last. I bought this processor for use in a DVR computer system I was building. The DVR computer stores and plays Media Center recordings as well as high definition TV shows and movies. So far, this processor can play all these videos (both SD and HD) without any problems. When I play an HD video from iTunes in full screen, the CPU never goes above 40% and never above 87 degrees Fahrenheit. This is a great processor. Intel has never let me down and that's why I continue to be an Intel user. This is a great processor for the price and performance!

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
