Does everything I need

Bought for my newest home PC and it does the job perfectly. I don't game, so I just use the built-in video, Photoshop, and a few other apps that I still use on desktop with no problem.

Pros
  • Quick replacement
Cons
  • boring packaging

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's really very good for around $100.

Use it as a minecraft server, plex server, file download system, media server and game emulation engine. It works great for all of these things without using too much power.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Secret

Good buy best on the inside

Good processor and quality product for the money, it also comes with a cooler (I only touched the thermal paste with my finger, that's why). Works well No problems have been detected during this time as you can see the temperature of the processor.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Matching

Best Budget CPU for CPU Processors

I build a lot of PCs for retired customers, this is by far the best, most reliable/stable CPU for very budget PC builds. This processor along with 2 x 8GB for 16GB storage and 660P Intel 500GB m.2 NVME SSD. It is a 10 year old office computer and a basic home computer. 100 percent recommend this. No graphics card required.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Can hurt

Great Starter Chip: Internals

This was my first build and it worked great for about 5 months until I upgraded to i5 9600kf. One of the issues I had with this processor wasn't the processor itself but the included cooler, that flimsy cooler broke. The push pins broke all but 1 so I had a flimsy cooler held by a single push pin for about 5 months which gave me an average of 70C on standby and hit 100C many times. The other problem is that it struggles with "easy to start games" like Fortnite, but as expected Fortnite is moreโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Security
