Great processor for the price. Has mine over a year and it still works great.
Good choice for an office computer, low power consumption, low price, good performance.
The chip is as cold as ice when running. Ideal for hd movies and light gaming.

Intel Core i3-3220 CPU Processor

This cpu is great for the price. I've read that it outperforms amd fx quad cores that run at 4.2ghz.
The hyperthreading feature allows you simulate two more cores at fast speeds.
The 3.3 ghz on this baby make it very fast. Excellent processor.
Great option for my my budget gaming build. Definitely recommend. Just works!
A processor that is fast and affordable, you can't go wrong.

What customers say about "Cache And Memory Specifications"

Intel Pentium G2020 CPU Processor

Works great and very budget oriented. Has enough cache.
Hyperthreading is a plus for this cheap dual core. Amazing capacity of cache.
With this CPU and 16Gb of DDR4 memory its smooth.
Supports only weak memory with poor frequency.
The cache will not be enough for heavy use.

Intel Core i3-3220 CPU Processor

For everyday work on a computer and not very complex tasks, the cache in this processor is enough.
This one is 22nm so I can use my memory at 1600 which is good.
I coupled the 3220 with a mid range video card and 4GB of memory. I'm happy with how it works.
No complaints. I install 32 GB of RAM and the computer flies.
Limited cache. I would like a little more for such a processor.
