bought this for $20 on sale to be used in an ubuntu server box. Overall, given the price point it's nice, but does choke on heavier loads. For the server that I'm running (media + 2 active + 4 passive apps), I found it to be a little weak. Would probably need to tune up my server in order not to strain this cpu.

Fits my needs for an energy efficient server while still having enough horse power for general office work and web surfing. In summary, it works well as long you don't plan to play any current generation PC games with it.

for a file server or any basic system it works like a charm. I put it into a nas box and it barely even does more than idle.. and if needed it can oc very well. Useless for higher end systems of course but for the $ paired with a cheap 640 based board it's sweet indeed.

Bought this for a low-budget overclocking project. It did not disappoint! I could have gone for a dual core for a few $ more, but I don't plan on doing any video rendering or multitasking (not even multiple Firefox windows) on this thing. May end up making a decent HTPC.

Using with an Arctic Cooler HSF in a Windows Home Server box. Seems to be performing well; I haven't noticed any slowdowns via direct connection or remote desktop as of yet. I would get it again.
