Great CPU

Strengths: Extremly fast, easy to install, Clock speed for a dual core

Weakness: runs a little hot

Recently replaced my old pentium 4 for this baby and the diference is amzing. I am currently using multiple video softwares and it does not even blink. If you are going to be using this alot I recommend a case with extra fans to keep the temp down as well as an aftermarket heatsink.

Smithfield ok

Strengths: Has high core clock speed. Compatible with many motherboards. Runs ddr2

Weakness: Runs fairly hot. Heatsink pretty heavy so use beefed up mounting instead of oem supplied for confident heatsink operations.

Because of the high temps reported I was a little reluctant at first to try a smithfield over a presler. I also have dual processor amd chips I run but the 840d has a very high core clock speed which works well for a program I wrote. Dual core amds can best dual core intels except in core clock speed and price. By price and clock speed it gives the most performance for the lowest dollar...

Great Processor

Strengths: speed and dual core

Weakness: Runs a little hot but got rid of the Intel cooler and added a Zalman 9500. Keeps the temps in a good range.

Don't do all that much gaming but my grandson does and he loves it. Use a e-geforce 6800 card for his games. I like the dual core feature which allows me to run multiple programs. It's good and now that the price has dropped it's a excellent value
