Amazing speed
os:
Windows XPThis cpu beats any core2duo as it has three cores. I found 8750 much better than my core2duo system. I run rev connect, dvd encoding and crysis every day and I am very happy with this purchase.
Not rubbish
Read reviews all you like,real world usage is what its all about,just swapped back to `Amd` as i used a friends Pc with this chip and it WAS a shit load quicker than my INTEL CORE 2 DUO.Yes you can overclock the intels but im not into buying a chip to cook it within a year of buying it.
increasing electricity bill?
what are you one about
core 2's consume far less power than phenoms, even the quads consume less than this triple core
Please !!!!
In response to "This cpu beats any core2duo as it has three cores."
Maybe do a bit of reading before spouting such rubbish !!

and the rest of the benchmarks
About real world usage.
I agree entirely that real world usage and benchmarks tests show different sides to a CPU.
I build systems for a living and have to say that even AMD X2 cpu's 'feel' smoother and faster in real world usage than core2duo's.
If you want a PC that can kick arse on a benchmark test then a core2duo may make sense, but it's pretty pointless bumping up your electric bill just to produce high benchmark tests.
For real world usage it's AMD for me!
