THIS PRODUCT SHIPS IN OEM PACKAGING -
GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.
Detailed Features
Features
Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution
Dynamic execution is a combination of techniques (data flow analysis, speculative
execution, out of order execution, and super scalar) that Intel first implemented
in the P6 microarchitecture used in the Pentium® Pro processor, Pentium®
II processor and Pentium® III processors.
Intel® Intelligent Power Capability
Intel® Intelligent Power Capability is a set of capabilities designed
to reduce power consumption and design requirements. This feature manages
the runtime power consumption of all the processor's execution cores. The
result is excellent energy optimization enabling the Intel Core microarchitecture
to deliver more energy-efficient performance for desktop PCs, mobile PCs and
servers.
Intel® Advanced Smart Cache
The Intel® Advanced Smart Cache is a multi-core optimized cache that significantly
reduces latency to frequently used data, thus improving performance and efficiency
by increasing the probability that each execution core of a dual-core processor
can access data from a higher-performance, more efficient cache subsystem.
Intel® Smart Memory Access
Intel® Smart Memory Access improves system performance by optimizing the
use of the available data bandwidth from the memory subsystem and hiding the
latency of memory accesses.
Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost
The Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost is a feature that significantly
improves performance when executing Streaming SIMD Extension (SSE/SSE2/SSE3)
instructions.

I have a Intel 3.0 631 overclocked to 3.6 (stable) and this CPU seem to break even in my performance test on a stock air cooler. My 631 runs on the liquid cooling systemm, and this E4500 seemed to keep up with my power house on a oem fan...I wouldn't mind knowing how this thing overclocks. VERY NICE.

If you just looking for an all around snappy PC with some subharddcore gaming this is a great CPU.
Runs applications and games with ease.
However, I have read about bottlenecks with the CPU when running a serious graphics card but I wouldn't worry about that. Unless your so hardcore you need quadcore.
This is the best bang for the buck.
Heat Sinks - Many Shapes & Sizes!
A heat sink (or heatsink) is an object that absorbs and dissipates heat from
another object using thermal contact (either direct or radiant). Heat sinks
are used in a wide range of applications wherever efficient heat dissipation
is required; including for CPUs, Memory, Video Cards, and more.
Heat Sink Shapes Change!
Many products come with a Heat Sink, and some with a combination Heat Sink
and Fan. Keep in mind though, that manufacturers are constantly
improving the design of their cooling components, thus the shape and design
of the heat sink or heat sink & fan can change on any product at any time.
PLEASE NOTE:
Cooling Components Can Change At Any Time, And Do Not
Affect The Performance Or Specifications Of The Product.
How Do Heat Sinks Work?
Heat sinks function by transferring high temperature thermal energy (heat)
from one object (such as a CPU chip) to a second object (such as the Heat
Sink), which has a lower temperature, with a much greater heat capacity.
This rapid transfer of heat quickly balances the temperature of both
devices, lowering the temperature of the first. This is what makes a
heat sink a cooling device. Since room temperature is usually cooler than
the hot device, the Heat Sink helps cool the device, lowering its temp to
closer to room temperature.
The most common design of a heat sink is a metal device with many fins or
vanes. The high thermal conductivity of the metal combined with the large
surface area of the fins does the work to rapidly transfer heat to the
surrounding, cooler, air. This cools the heat sink and whatever it is in
contact with. Some Heat Sinks use the metal alone for cooling, some
use fluids (just like you car radiator) and a thermal interface material
(such as thermal gel) to ensure maximum heat transfer to the heat sink.
Adding a fan dramatically improves air flow, and improves the heat transfer
even more.
Remember The
Thermal Paste!
Remember that when you are adding a Heat Sink, you MUST USE
thermally conductive Gel or Paste, to form a good thermal contact between
the Heat Sink and the Device. Failing to use this will result in
reduced cooling, and possible failure and damage to the device!
PLEASE
NOTE: We
only sell NEW processors purchased direct from the manufacturer or from factory
authorized distributors. We will never sell a "pull" (which is a CPU
removed from an assembled system at some manufacturing plant) or a used processor
as other online vendors do without telling you. We are the largest CPU reseller
in the Country, we offer the lowest prices in the industry on processors because
we deal in such great volume. If you are comparing our price against another
site with a much lower price, you are probably buying returns or pulls. Only
accept genuine quality, buy from Us.
VERY
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING OUR RETURN POLICY ON CPU'S:
Please note that all processors may be returned only for defective exchange.
You must purchase a compatible heatsink and fan on the same order as the processor
in order to preserve your warranty or exchange privilege. We are not able to
accept returns for refunds on processors under any circumstances. All processors
will be inspected and tested upon return and any damage caused by poor packaging,
overclocking, or other tampering with the processor will be cause for the return
to be refused, and exchange denied.
