The kind you'd want to recommend to the average person. I have grown to love good, efficient, budget chips.
#Intel pentium g3220 professional
Overall Review: I have experience with all kinds of processors, considering I have been performing professional computer repair for over a decade. An i5 is like 2 of these on one die, why does it have to be 3x the price. I wish AMD had something truly comparable. Intel has no inexpensive true quad core options Stock cooler is anemic, but sufficient, and keeps the price down. You can tighten the timings on higher speed RAM to compensate. System idles at 15W with an SSD and a Bronze 80+ PSU.Ĭons: - Only Supports 1333mhz RAM speed, but honestly, it's not a huge deal. Barely breaks 40C with any descent tower cooler. Mulit-Tasking is better than most would expect Intel's got a really good answer to most of AMD's offerings in the price range Power Consumption & Thermal Output are quite low Pros: - Price to Performance ratio is Outstanding! His build: Intel G3220, 8 GB Team Elite 1333, EVGA GTX 760, 1TB Seagate HDD My build: Core i5-2500 (non K), 8GB Gskill 1600, EVGA GTX 760, 1TB Hitachi HDD.
#Intel pentium g3220 upgrade
This is a solid choice for an everyday family PC, office PC and an exceptional budget gaming CPU that could last you for a while until you decide to upgrade.if that upgrade is even needed. I was going to go with an AMD APU but decided to go this route instead last minute and I am glad I did. I am assuming the fact this CPU doesn't get hot sort of negates the need for a large heatsink. It stays cool and the stock cooler is actually pretty quiet this time around. I can't say enough about how impressed I am with this chip. I was expecting a much bigger gap but instead was pleasantly surprised to see that my system and his are within 7fps of each other on those games. I actually went back and benchmarked a couple of games like Bioshock Infinite, Sleeping Dogs and Tomb Raider. Its paired with a EVGA GTX 760 and the truth is I thought it would bottleneck a little but I don't notice any difference between this and my personal Core i5-2500 and GTX 760. As I said I purchased this for a friends budget build with the intention of later upgrading to a Core i5 when he could afford a Core i5. Where it really shines and blew me away was in gaming. Its not a Core i3 or Core i5 and while it doesn't perform as well in intensive programs like Cinebench R15 and the x264 HD Video encoding its an amazing value for average daily use.

Overall Review: I purchased this for a friends build on a budget and needless to say I am surprised on how well it performs. It has 20x + improvement from prior generation and is automatic, continuous, fine-grained, transparent to well written SW.
