Superb

Works as advertised. I'm quite happy to have upgraded. It runs a bit hot on my motherboard (55 degrees C), but that's probably because it's summer here (30 C) + I'm probably useless at applying thermal paste.

Shipping via the Global Shipping Program was reliable and used FedEx in the last leg in Hong Kong, which is a BIG plus because Hong Kong Post is very unreliable with deliveries.

Arrived in a reasonable time, properly packaged. I used thIs processor to upgrade an ageing Dell Studio Desktop. The processor was easily fitted and gives about a 20% Improvement in CPU performance. Useful if not outstanding.Read full review

I love this Quad Core.., excellent processor.

I've heard so much about these quad cores I had to get one for my Dell Optiplex 780 Desktop, I used to have a Duo core in my machine so once I installed the Quad Core everything worked like a charm, I not a video game enthusiast but I can now do a number things from graphics art to photo editing..., I definitely got my moneys worth.Read full review

Max out your old Intel socket-775 computer.

The Q9550 is a low cost way to almost max out your old Intel socket-775 computer.
I will give you a WEI of 7.2+ for the CPU.
I did it on some 6 year old used Dell & HP computers.
Don't forget to apply some heat sink compound and run Intel's free Processor Diagnostic to test it and your fan/heatsink installation.Read full review

As good as the Q9650 and cheaper

The Q9550 is a fast CPU the level 2 cache @ 12MB gives it the extra push that exceeded my expectations. Being a past Q6600 overclocker this is a big upgrade.

The old man how young You are!

The Q9550 work very well and I hope will last forever. I myself update an old PC to a better one.
I had an old Athlon. And now I used an unused motherboard GA-P43-ES3G that I had it for years. I mounted that processor. I also bought a graphic card GT730 GDDR5 4GB 128 bit, a cooler ZALMAN, memory (I still wait it-now I had intalled 4GB). All bought from ebay. I am looking forward for the 8 GB of RAM to arrive to see the difference. Overall until now I like what I bought from ebay.Read full review

Good for a cheap standard Win10 PC.

I have used the processor for windows, Youtube, browsing and light duty tasks. And this processor is responsive and good. Does not feel slow at all. So if you are not gaming or rendering, this processor can give new life to old hardware. Used to have a Core2Duo, but this quad is a good upgrade. I have a second PC for gaming and heavy duty tasks like video editing. It was a good investment to buy this cpu.Read full review

Good product

This product was as described. I just dropped it into the socket , locked it in and installed the CPU fan. When I hit the power button, everything worked. I am satisfied. Project successful.

Old but still viable CPU

This old 775 Quad Core chip is fantastic! Can I play the newest and best games on it? Sort of. It's perfect for a multimedia or workstation environment and can handle - with a middle of the road GPU - a game like Fortnite at lower settings. Minecraft is a breeze. I upgraded an old HP Compaq 6000pro with a wimpy Pentium dual core. This blows it away!Read full review
