What customers say about "Details"
Intel Pentium G4400 CPU Processor
  • The socket is LGA 1151, which supports other Skylake processors, as well the upcoming Kaby Lake and Cannonlake generations.
  • With an 1151 socket, you are preparing a build that most likely will last you for years.
  • No problems with installation. Great socket type.
Intel Core i3-6100 3M Cache, 3.70 GHz Processor
  • Great integrated graphics for desktop use and light gaming.
  • Onboard graphics are actually pretty decent from what I can tell.
  • Faster then I expected!!! The integrated graphics are really not that bad, The thing is pretty snappy and stays cool.
  • Hyper-threading technology to allow excellent single core performance (processor has 2 physical cores with 2 threads each).
  • I had a wonderful time with it. The CPU had performed better than I thought it was most games I had a boost clock to everything ran fine on the stock cooler with good temperatures.

What customers say about "Technical Specifications"
Intel Pentium G4400 CPU Processor
  • Excellent budget CPU with strong single-threaded performance.
  • Perfect for crypto mining rig, fast responsive and no flaws.
  • Great budget processor, the on-board graphics are great.
  • Worked perfectly and very fast for my computer.
  • Very speedy CPU, perfect for low-use office computers, and inexpensive.
Intel Core i3-6100 3M Cache, 3.70 GHz Processor
  • This is a very fast processor, and with the hyperthreading is acts just like a quad-core.
  • Pretty fast for what it is. I dont have any issues gaming with this CPU.
  • I had a wonderful time with it. The CPU had performed better than I thought it was most games I had a boost clock to everything ran fine on the stock cooler with good temperatures.
  • This chip does everything I need including graphics heavy games ( of course for that you also need a graphics card). Runs cool and quite despite nice 3.7 gigahertz speed.
  • Not designed for hard core gaming. they’re more than capable of running the vast majority of standard computer programs with ease but it still can serve it well

What customers say about "Cache And Memory Specifications"
Intel Pentium G4400 CPU Processor
  • I’ve built multiple workstations with this CPU and with dual channel memory the performance has been excellent.
  • Works great with lots of RAM.
  • There is enough cache for comfortable processing of tasks.
  • Has excellent memory compatibility.
  • In intense games, this processor does not cope due to the small cache.
Intel Core i3-6100 3M Cache, 3.70 GHz Processor
  • Not really really expensive but way worth the price and works good with stock cooler and under load the hottest it got was 147°F which isnt bad being the t junction is 200° dont be scared of the 3mb of cache is all u need.
  • The perfect amount of cache, cores, and clock speeds for a light browsing/light workload PC Competitively priced.
  • Supports current high speed memory and other skylake features.
  • Very fast. I paired it with Biostar motherboard and G-skill Ripjaws DDR-4 memory. EVGA 750ti card. Blows old setup out of the water.
  • This 6th Gen I3 3.7GHZ Is almost 90% faster than my old 2nd Gen Sandy bridge 3.1GHZ processor. The memory speeds went from 1.333GHZ to 2.133GHZ so that would help as well. So basically it is like getting an older I5 system.
