Intel Pentium E6300 2.8 GHz Processor BX80571E6300

Bang for the Buck, The E6300 with the 1066 BUSS is a strong performer. Consistently out performs the E5000 series because of the memory speed and you will not find much difference the E6300 versus E7400 processors, which have the same clock speed, only diffence in L-2 cache. Your hard drive becomes the limiting factor and not the processing with the E6300. Moderate gaming chip with limited overclocking capability though. I like the 1066 BUSS that matches the 1066 BUSS on the memory if your motherboard supports 1066 DDR2. Then,it is 1:1 clocking, no mismatch.
