read up on the e5200 (and e2xxx) before you sound like an idiot
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

Well, maybe because they're the most price-worthy processors on the market?
Thats why i was asking how much did he pay for it. No need for the superior tone Freezer.
If that's really the case, you fail at expressing yourself.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

You fail at understanding. Is "Why a Pentium?" not a question?

It's an extremely unneccesary question. You make it sound like he just bought a Pentium D, and I'm not the only one saying so.

Oh it was just a question. Don't know why all the hassle

Freezer your attack was completely unnecessary. I was trying to talk with the guy but you don't let me. Can I please talk to him without you interfering?

What made you think I was criticizing him? If I ask you why a BMW would that be a critique and offence towards you? Just asking.

The thing is, the reasons for getting a PDC are nothing if not extremely obvious: They're the best price/performance CPUs on the market. There's no point in asking, as the only answer you'll get is "good price/performance" or "good price".

I was hoping to get an answer before getting flamed. Oh well more luck next time I guess.

But why did you ask? You know just as well as I do what answers you would get.

Unless you thought it was a Pentium D.

I don't know for how much Pentiums go for these days and what their performance is. It was an honest question. Too bad I can't get a decent answer these days. Flame before answer right?

£50 something i think, i had an e6300 before.

Its the e5200 with the unlocked multiplier.

And i bought it as they are very efficient not to mention i should see just under 4ghz out of it, got 3.2ghz out of my e6300 which was 1.8ghz per core standard, with a low multiplier.

Welcome to another round of guess what max bought

https://i36.tinypic.com/dvlp48.jpg

Spoiler (highlight to read):
e8400 E0, E5200, P5Q, P5Q deluxe, 2x2GB DDR2-1066, 2x2GB DDR2-800, 2x HD4870, HD3450, 2x samsung spinpoint F1, Alpenföhn Gross-Clockner, Antec P182, assorted other stuff.

Still to come: Water cooling for the e8400 and the GPUs


It's a HTPC for my parents and a new main rig for myself. My current one is getting shipped off to my parent's place.
