Intel Pentium 4 650
Strengths: Superior Performance for Work or Play Benefits such as: EM64T, 2MB L2 Cache, Enhanced SpeedStep, Execute Disable Bit, HT Tech, Overclock-ablity and Price!
Weakness: Heat, however now intel addressed this issue and it runs cooler than the 5xx Series.
Upgraded from a 5xx series processor and saw noticeable change in performance. Encoding is a lot faster now and also loading times Expedited. EM64T : Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T) is an enhancement to Intel's IA-32 architecture. The enhancement allows the processor to run newly written 64-bit code and access larger amounts of memory. 2MB L2 Cache : A larger cache size can help...

nice CPU
Strengths: fast CPU, easy install
Weakness: a little noisy, the fan should be bigger
very good CPU. It temperature is around 40 degrees when idle and 53 degrees when running 100% CPU. Environment is 28 degrees. 2M catch. if the fan was quiet, should be fine.

Works Well
Strengths: Fast
Weakness: None at the moment
A simple pentium processor that generates fast computing power for an average price. I have used this and a pentium dual core 2.8ghz and for about the same price, I feel this product runs smoother atm. I can't speak for the heatsink though, as I have replaced mine with a more efficient model. Many people have said intel stock heatsinks are poor in quality and create a lot of heat.

Excellent Processor, Totally Stable
Strengths: this processeor is extremely fast and very quiet which is why I like it.
Weakness: that CPU runs hot, but now with Arctic Silver, even on a full load, it does not exceed 57 C, it still seems to idle at a high temp, but that could be that I am not use to such powerful processors.
at first, I was getting warnings about it running too hot. That was my fault because I did not have the fan on tight, but even when I did fix that problem, it still was running at 70+ C at 30% usage. I purchased some Arctic silver, it still idles around 48 C but it does not get much hotter 60 C

One of the best!
Strengths: Strong and cool!
Weakness: None
I recommend this processor for every system, it works so smoothly and nearly none of crash came up! I could have my job done faster than any systems. Use it to feel it!
