Intel Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz ProcessorStrengths: EVERYTHING. Great for the game enthusiast. Cost me $300 and was well worth it. Weakness: Price... It was a great buy. I am into games and video encoding and such, cut my encoding time for DVD Video, SVCD, VCD, DivX/XviD in more than 1/2! I am extremely pleased with it sofar. Bought a ASUS P4C800 Deluxe mobo with it and it flys. This equipped with a good video card (radeon 9700 in my case) and alot of cooling (5 fans for me) and you have a rock steady solid gaming computer. I wouldnt go spending all this money any more though, a word of warning. The 64 bit processors are being made now, and when they hit the market they will destroy all older 32bit processors. If you dont care and upgrade alot, GET THIS! It is fantastic. 75% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Intel Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz ProcessorStrengths: Hyper-Threading Technology allows multiple threads to be processed SIMULTANEOUSLY! This drops load times for large applications significantly, as well as allows for better multitasking. Weakness: It's expensive! If you are willing to shell out the big bucks for performance, go for this one. Intel is finally coming out of the closet with a processor that stomps all over AMD. However, if you're just DYING to get the Multi-Thread technology and the 800MHz FSB, I would recommend going with the 2.8GHz or the 2.6GHz, as they are several hundred dollars cheaper, and you will probably not even notice a performance drop (unless you are into overclocking or high-end graphics). All-in-all, this is one sweet processor! 72% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Intel Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz ProcessorStrengths: Excellent performance, 800 mhz fsb and more, just look at the specs Weakness: incredibly pricey This processor is excellent for high-end applications. I use it for video editing and get unbelievable rendering times. I have heard that this processor has a ton more potential when overclocked, but spending almost 400 dollars on a processing unit is a ton of money, too much to risk overclocking with. I bought this about 3 weeks before the price drop, unfortanately, and now it looks like this processor can be purchased for prices in the lower 300s. Despite spending all the money i did, i still like the processor a lot. GO INTEL. 69% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Intel Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz ProcessorStrengths: Great speed, overclocking, and holds low temperature. Weakness: As always Intels prices could always come down. Just a great, fast, stable, very overclockable CPU /w the right motherboard. I have this one on an Asus P4C800-E Deluxe board and it's KILLER! 65% of readers found this review helpful.

Intel Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz ProcessorStrengths: Very fast compare to the previous processor type B and A. Nice for multiprocessing and movie editing. Weakness: so far still good This processor is very fast processor that i ever see in my life. It probably come out with the highest speed in the future, but for this year.. this processor will become the fastest processor in the world. 61% of readers found this review helpful.

Intel Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz ProcessorStrengths: Fast Weakness: None yet This processor is very fast. It can do 5 multimedia task at once and i can still surf the net. My old Pentium 3 866 processor would roll over and play dead while doing just 2 multi media task. This processor is really small. The fan is three times the size of the processor. Runs great. 56% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Intel Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz Processor
Strengths: Very fast 800mhz FSB stomps every thing in the amd camp as well as processors on the 533FSB
Weakness: Price
since you need a chipset that supports the 800 mhz fsb i would go with the DFI Lanboy it is nice looking feature loaded comes with rounded cables(for those of you w/ case windows)and you can fush the bus speed to 1ghz so your 3.0 will run like 3.7 ghz nice huh no weird cooling either it has a big heat sink
