    Product Experience:
    2 Months Quad-Core Performance for a Great Price
    Strengths: 1) 4 cores 2) Price 3) G0 Steppings have somewhat less power consumption than their predecessors
    Weaknesses: 1) Still expensive compared to other Intel offerings 2) Not everyone can use the 4 cores
    Summary: This is a wonderful processor for those who are looking for some serious power. Most games will take advantage of only 2 of the 4 cores, so the only places the quad core processor will give more are in OSS and apps written to take advantage of 4 cores. My main use for quad-core power is video encoding, which gets a great boost from the two extra cores. Future games and applications will definitely use more cores, so this should be a good investment. I recommend it!
