Pros: Great oc capability.Runs solid with everything out today.Runs cool if you set it up properly.
Comment:
What else can be said about possibly the best CPU Intel have ever created. This thing is good aout of the box and great after you put the juice to it. Try to keep it under 1.365V after you burn it in, GL have fun.

Pros: Good reliabiltiyGreat heat preformancegood dual core use in OSVery good custmoer support
Comment:
I bought this CPU in a computer system. I am still using it today and it is serving me well. It works very well with the newest graphics apps and games (perfect with GTA 4). It uses its ful dual core potential and boots very fast with the OS. Its very good in terms of temps, which are mostly under 40C with stock cooling. Overclocking is a bit complicated buy thats mostly attributed to my mobo. Definitely a to buy and a very worthy product for your PC!

Cons: The overcloackability, you have to be lucky and get a good chip to get some descent result before C0 stepping

Pros: Intel Core2 Duo architectureHigh frequencyLow price
Comment:
For gaming Core 2 are way better than Quad cores, video games as of now cant take much benefit of more than 2 cores , also with core 2 you get higer frequency for lower cost than quad cores. Frequency is really important for videogames compared to the number of core.For gamers its the thing to get. Also compared to e8400 the average 60$ diferrence really worth it.

Great proc for those on a budget, but still looking for a good chip. Make sure you get a good mobo to OC it with though, as it can run above spec with no probs. Fast enough for everything I have thrown at it so far.

Cons: It's not the latest thing, but that can be a plus for the budget conscious.Takes a long time to OC, anything more than medium sized bumps it won't take.

Pros: The E8500:1. Runs much cooler and with greater efficiency than it's predecessors and many of its contemporaries.2. Amazing $/ power ratio. seriously... amazing!3. Huge headroom for Overclockers (which further enhances point 2)4. Very good access and process time. (I threw an 8 enemy 1000 unit limit map of Supreme Commander at it. I finally got lags around 6000 units)
Comment:
If you are looking to build a strong machine, or upgrade an old one, and don't have the money throw away at a whim. This is a superb chip.

Cons: It won't make me some pancakes, and it never gets hot enough to even cook them.

Pros: CoolGood OCer
Comment:
OC'd to 3.8Ghz just by changing the FSB from 333 to 400 and it stays at 33C (10C above ambient) at idle and 57C under load (Prime95). Ordered before christmas, received SLB9K (E0) stepping. I had a few extra bucks, so I went with the E8500 over the E8400 - I'm glad I did.Don't forget to PM...

Comment:
I replaced an athlon x2 6000+ dual core with this cpu and I can't believe the difference.This thing smokes the athlon and it produces hardly any heat.I run it in my Antec 900 case and it's way cooler than my last setup.On top of that, it's running at 3700mhz, stable on air with lots left.Highly recommended.

srsly, why don't they make these in pink? It's about time we had some anodized CPU's.I bet more mac book users would go PC if they could have pretty CPU colours like pink and baby blue.

Pros: PricePowerfulLow temperature
Comment:
When my motherboard died I replaced my E6600 with this one.It gave me more improvment than I was expecting and the price was good.I use it at stock speed, might try some overclocking when I feel my system is stable and backed up.

This is an awesome cpu! It has a 9.5 multiplier which is 0.5 more than the E8400 but it was only $20 extra for this model. I recommend this over the E8400 if this is only more expensive by $20~

Got this on sale for 190 a few weeks back, which was the same price as the e8400. So I got this one instead. Everything is great with it so faroverclocked easily to 3.8GHz, could probably go further, but I don't see the point. Excellent choice for the price.

Pros: TempOCability
Comment:
Running nice and cool r 4GHz with 1.2Vcore.I believe it's got more potential in it with increased voltage, but prefer the cool temp instead.Temp sits around 35r when idle and plays at mid 40's while playing games.Considering that there's a very little price difference between E8400, this one's definitely gotta be your pick.

Pros: This is a great CPU, and is only a couple bucks more than the 8400. Runs cool, and I hear is a good overclocker :)
Comment:
Honestly after price matching, well worth the cost. As well as the slight upgrade over the 8400. It has been running very well and cool, for about a week now. An amazing upgrade from my very old 2mb E6400.Thanks NCIX!

Comment:
Très puissant. Overclock au dessus de 4GHz très facilement. Pas grand chose de négatif a dire contre. Peut-être acheté un heatsink avec car celui d'intel n'est pas extraordinaire. Vraiment, pour le prix, il vaut la peine.

Pros: Great for OC'ing, fast, stable, strong
Comment:
Was able to easily OC it past 4Ghz with air, like everyone else. I was actually really surprised at that, considering I had 800mhz memory. I've got 1066mhz on order right now, which should make it stable at 4.4ghz or so. Really can't go wrong with this CPU at the price. People keep saying go with the E8400, and I say no. Don't do it. Get this and be happy.

This CPU is very fast, and can be overclocked easily to 4.0GHz no problem, just make sure you got the right cooling. With my TRUE in push/pull config, the cpu idles at 35C g 4.0GHz, and of course NCIX fast shipping and process was great
