I managed to get this new for less than it is priced here. £78 from eBay. For me, it is all that I need for a long while. I use it for general computing and occasional gaming. You can pair up a motherboard and RAM very cheaply for this processor now.My graphics card is a 1GB MSI Geforce GTX 460 and my system build came to a smidge over £400. I am yet to find a game I play that the system struggles with. Assassin's Creed 2 runs at around 50fps.All in all I would say this is very good for the cost. Newer i5 equivalents probably require greater investment in terms of RAM and motherboard but may yield more performance. If you choose a processor in this realm, I would advise an SSD as a primary drive to really help your system. I find I am slightly bottlenecked in terms of data recovery.Pros: -Fast and powerful -Cheap to couple with componentsCons: -More efficient processors coming onto the market

The item was delivered promptly and in good order inside its sealed original packaging.It was easy to install and the difference in performance between this Intel 08400 Core 2 Quad 2.66 Ghz CPU and my other Core 2 Quad 2.88 Ghz processor is barely noticeable.

Purchased as an upgrade to an old machine. CPU arrived and was packaged well, tried and tested on my new motherboard. Have not looked back since. A really good CPU ideal for my music production needs. Really happy with the purchase.
