Wow, i mean this thing just zaps through apps like nothing. I've never seen anything this fast before. I've been building computer and this was the first one (fastest) that i've ever built for my clients. It's great, super fast and durable. The best part about it is that it runs efficiently without loud noise. I tested it on a few apps including Adobe photoshop CS4 and it seem to take it like candy. Amazing processor, does more than it's built to do it is incredible. The only thing with intel is that it's a bit overprice for the market average but it does the job well. If you have the money to spend, this processor will do you as good, I say it's a better value than the i7 but can't beat the Phenom II X945 Quad-Core's deal of 169.00. Pretty amazing processor overall.
Wow...

I dont know what to say... words cant express how overly satisfied I am with this cpu. Overclocked to 3.2ghz with aftermarket heatsink and this puppy runs whatever your heart desires. In fact I think i remember it running applications and multitasking at the stock 2.66ghz with the same results. Thankyou intel

Works Great, Fast, fast, fast...
Even with the stock cooler, keeps it cool enough. Probably would get a better cooler if you plan on overclocking, but this is speedy enough without overclocking it.
awesome

I got this on sale a while back, easy to install and no issues. Processing is extremely fast.
Can't beat the power to price ratio.

I know there is more power out there, I just can't imagine needing it.
Heat Sinks - Many Shapes & Sizes!
A heat sink (or heatsink) is an object that absorbs and dissipates heat from
another object using thermal contact (either direct or radiant). Heat sinks
are used in a wide range of applications wherever efficient heat dissipation
is required; including for CPUs, Memory, Video Cards, and more.
Heat Sink Shapes Change!
Many products come with a Heat Sink, and some with a combination Heat Sink
and Fan. Keep in mind though, that manufacturers are constantly
improving the design of their cooling components, thus the shape and design
of the heat sink or heat sink & fan can change on any product at any time.
PLEASE NOTE:
Cooling Components Can Change At Any Time, And Do Not
Affect The Performance Or Specifications Of The Product.
How Do Heat Sinks Work?
Heat sinks function by transferring high temperature thermal energy (heat)
from one object (such as a CPU chip) to a second object (such as the Heat
Sink), which has a lower temperature, with a much greater heat capacity.
This rapid transfer of heat quickly balances the temperature of both
devices, lowering the temperature of the first. This is what makes a
heat sink a cooling device. Since room temperature is usually cooler than
the hot device, the Heat Sink helps cool the device, lowering its temp to
closer to room temperature.
The most common design of a heat sink is a metal device with many fins or
vanes. The high thermal conductivity of the metal combined with the large
surface area of the fins does the work to rapidly transfer heat to the
surrounding, cooler, air. This cools the heat sink and whatever it is in
contact with. Some Heat Sinks use the metal alone for cooling, some
use fluids (just like you car radiator) and a thermal interface material
(such as thermal gel) to ensure maximum heat transfer to the heat sink.
Adding a fan dramatically improves air flow, and improves the heat transfer
even more.
Remember The
Thermal Paste!
Remember that when you are adding a Heat Sink, you MUST USE
thermally conductive Gel or Paste, to form a good thermal contact between
the Heat Sink and the Device. Failing to use this will result in
reduced cooling, and possible failure and damage to the device!
