The Sweet Spot
The e8400 has been used in my budget gaming system and I was easily able to overclock it to 3.6Ghz (at own risk) with the stock cooler supplied and an Asrock P45XE mobo. Gaming benchmarks have improved by around 20%. Highly recommended if you're looking for a reasonably priced high performing CPU which reportedly can be clocked to 4.5Ghz

The ultimate overclocker's processor, the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 runs at an already high frequency of 3.00GHz stock, but pairing the processor with good memory will allow for the processor to run full tilt at 400MHz FSB (or beyond). With its 9x ...

| Summary | At 3 GHz, the Core 2 Duo E8400 is right in the middle of Intel's E8xxx range. On paper, it's 10% slower than the the E8600, the 3.33 GHz processor at the top of this line, but our tests showed that it was only around 8% less powerful |
| Pros | - Speedy results on almost every test, - Sometimes as fast as entry-level quad-core processors, - Reasonable energy efficiency |
| Cons | - For demanding applications, quad-core processors will do better |
| Verdict | The E8000 series is an excellent bunch of dual-core processors with reasonable power consumption. For more demanding tasks, though, a quad-core CPU will do better. |
