    Your post led me to believe it is not in use. True ?
    Is it the 125W TDP C3 stepping model ? If so, would you consider selling ?

    Well that's the thing, the most CPU intensive thing would be converting DVD's to AVI, for storage on the Hard Drive, as I rarely play RPG or platform games, more strategy based no point in worrying about FPS rate.

    Excel and Word aren't going to be that CPU intensive, nether I would have thought would things like Photoshop or Blender, and browsing the web well :) so I see no real need for me to pay the extra pennies for Intel when AMD can cope with everything I need and if in the course of messing and playing I Damage a component It will be cheaper to replace ;)

    This seems like respectable performance to me. Accordingly, I don't understand the low 6.0 W.E.I. rating I received.
