Pros: Ability to Overclock, Low Watt (45nm), Dual-Core, Budget CPU

I bought this CPU exactly for it's ability to yield ~ +90% overclock without having to do much. Not to mention, the 45nm technology that it uses, you are looking at a CPU that can easily compete with some of the more "power" hungry processors in the Dual-Core market. I think that this processor was released more or less for the overclocking enthusiasts as the potential that it had was quite remarkable compared to other Dual-Core models that were on the market at the same time.

To this very day, this CPU is still in my Folding Rig! I use it as it is the only processor that I own that has a low wattage foot-print and that will not bottleneck with my GPU's.

If you are looking for a great overclocking CPU and are on a tight budget than look no further than the E5200 thumb.gif

Pros: Cheap and Highly Overclockable.

Cons: Small Cache Size and Only Dual Core.

I recall my friend spotting the bargain deal for this product on Tiger Direct near the year end of 2009.

I wasn't thinking of making a new build until the year after...

But after doing research, I found out that this is a great bargain overclocker... so I got one in retail box.

Bad move on my part... I then end up spending more to get the rest to build a system.

I know I could have sold it... or now replace it with a quad core... oh well...

Back on track, I can easily get this chip to do 4GHz stably. biggrin.gif

Mine's a R0 revision/stepping, and many said and has shown that the M0 revision/stepping that launched before R0 has an even better overclocking potential. And that's INSANE! eek.gif

One Awesome Overclocker CPU!!! thumb.gif
