Dual core, NOT QUAD 18 Mar 2012
This chip has TWO physical cores. It utilises hyper threading to allow the OS to treat each core as multiple cores, but it isn't a quad core chip. Seriously Amazon, this is pretty poor. Change the title.

Great value chip though.

I wanted a no-frills low-to-midrange gaming friendly workhorse CPU so that more money could be put to the GPU, and this CPU is pretty much it (today's games are still more sensitive to clocks than number of cores). It's not the fastest nor cheapest, but it does give you the best performance/price ratio, as far as Intel processors go currently. The next serious step would be a Core i5, but that is significantly more expensive and can help only if you do video editing or heavy compiling, while going any cheaper would net you a much weaker CPU with minimal additional savings. The stock cooler is not much but as this CPU has a locked multiplier, it makes little difference. As a 1155 socket CPU it also opens up the possibility of buying this CPU now, and then upgrading to a stronger one (Ivy Bridge) in a year or so provided your motherboards' BIOS supports it.

Not What You Think 7 May 2012
By gasman
Amazon Verified Purchase
Well, thought it was too good to be true. Advertised as a QUAD core but in actual fact is a 2 core.
Given to understand someone else has reported the description to Trading Standards.
Was looking for a Quad Core (as per the Google description)and wondered why the item seemed a bargain (NB. I know very little about P.Cs but took advice from someone who does)
Will I be recompensed due to the mis selling of this item, I don't think so.
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU READ ON THE GOOGLE WEB SITE!
