Upgrade your system with the Core i5-750 and own the processor that speeds up when you do. These CPU powerhouses are designed to handle the intense compute and visualization workloads like video games and image editing applications. Core i5 processors allow you to multitask faster and unleash powerful media creation tools.
Best of all, the 8MB of Intel Smart Cache gives you blazing speeds you never realized were possible. Take advantage of Intel Turbo Boost technology which dynamically accelerates CPU performance to match your workload. The Integrated Memory Controller optimizes data bandwidth with two channels.
Smart Cache provides a higher-performance, more efficient cache subsystem while the Core microarchitecture accelerates overall system performance across your applications through energy efficiency. Add the Intel Core i5-750 to your system and you’ll never look back. Experience the convenience, versatility and raw power of Intel Core i5 processors today!
Intel Core i5 Quad-core Processor With four processing cores, the multitasking monster Quad-Core Intel Core i5 processor delivers fourfold the performance on highly-threaded applications, taking your desktop PC experience into a completely new realm of mega power. The powerful processor delivers serious performance on the ultra-demanding games of today and tomorrow. The innovative 45nm quad-core technology optimizes thermal performance for reduced power consumption and noise.
Intel Advanced Smart Cache Intel Advanced Smart Cache Technology dynamically allocates the shared L2 cache to each processor core based on workload. This efficient, multi-core-optimized implementation increases the probability that each core can access data from fast L2 cache, resulting in significantly reduced latency for frequently used data and improved performance.
Intel Turbo Boost technology Intel Turbo Boost technology maximizes speed for demanding applications, dynamically accelerating performance to match your workload-more performance when you need it the most.
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology (EIST) EIST allows the system to dynamically adjust processor voltage and core frequency to decrease average power consumption and average heat production. Combined with existing power saving features, EIST may provide an excellent balance between providing power when you need it and conserving power when you don’t.
Execute Disable Bit (EDB) Intel's Execute Disable Bit function can prevent certain classes of malicious "buffer overflow" attacks when combined with a supporting operating system. Execute Disable Bit allows the processor to classify areas in memory where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables code execution, preventing damage or worm propagation.
Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) With Intel VT, one hardware platform functions as multiple "virtual" platforms. For business, Intel VT offers improved manageability, limiting downtime and maintaining worker productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions. In the home, Intel VT allows creating unique user environments for multiple family members using the same platform simultaneously.
Other Thoughts: Runs cool, overclocks really well and it's fast. I bought 2 of them!

Pros: Great price, Easy Install into the new ASUS P7P55D board and GSkill RipJaw Memory. Had everything newly put together in an hour Including new Antec TP-650 PS and it all fired up flawlessly on the first boot on my existing Windows 7 64 OS.
Cons: Not used to the heat sink retainers, but got them figured out fairley quick. I broke my own rule and read the manual on that one!
Other Thoughts: Great processor at a great price. I also used the "Rush Processing" and it shipped the same day. I priced all of my components with several different online etailers for 2 weeks and Newegg always came out as the best deal!

Rating: 5/5Get this CPU!
Pros: 200 bucks for a cpu that can compete in both day to day tasks and games with the i7's cant be beat. Price per performance and price per watt is outstanding!
Cons: even if you scrape off the grey goo intel puts on the HS and put on thermalright chillfactor (has no cure time unlike the 200hrs on Arctic Silver) it still runs a tad warm. Plus the guy who came up with this pin through design needs to be fired. seriously I could understand if it was a bolt through design and there was a back plate on all socket 1156 mobos but this plastic pinthrough design is just awful. Then there's the lack of ability to run onboard video... why claim that the i5 can do it on your product launch (this is intel not newegg) then the most popular cpu doesnt offer it? Bait and switch advertising mayhaps?
Other Thoughts: To all the people claiming there's no difference between the amd x4 and this try looking up a review of the amd one before you type... the amd is almost half the performance of this chip even though its the same wattage and a quad core. So hey yeah half the performance half the price ... if youre only concerned with building the cheapest rig available Ive got a p4 3.0ghz with an nvidia 6800gt i'll sell you for 100 bucks. LOL you AMD fanboyz fail at life. Do your research then buy the best. In this case it's intel and you all know it!
On the onboard graphics topic though... who uses onboard graphics these days? why even put that on your chip specs to begin with? That's like going "hey wanna hamstring your rig from the getgo? buy this chip and use onboard graphics!"

Pros: Great Processor for a new build
Cons: the stock fan is absolutely horrible. i wish intel would do something their pushpins. installed the fan, and tried to take it off, and one pin would not budge at all, while the other ones would not click in and stay in, so i just left it. Luckily (hopefully) i won't need to change the processor anytime soon :]

Rating: 5/5An excellent processor.
Pros: I love this processor, this thing is blazing fast and is defintely worth the money I paid for it.
Seriously, when I overclock this, I won't need a new processor for a long while.
I put this with 4GB of DDR3 1600 RAM and a NVIDIA GTX 460 Video Card and games tremble beneath it's tread.
Cons: The heatsink and fan, to no surprise, are very mediocre. They just barely keep the processor below 60C, which is why I urge you to get a aftermarket heatsink and fan ASAP.
