This is a relatively new processor that saw the light on January of this year.

Other than the design process and operating frequency they are identical.

We’ll let the numbers speak for themselves when we put both to the test.

AMD’s processor is also clocked higher at 3.2GHz compared to the 2.8GHz frequency of the Pentium G6950.

Utilizing dual-channel DDR3 memory on the LGA1156 platform the Pentium G6950 is surprisingly speedy, too.

There is almost no difference between the two at least nothing that will make any tangible performance difference.

There are two Pentium E5xxx processors currently selling: the E5300 and E5400 models.

The buying decision can easily be narrowed down to the slightly fasterE5400 for $5 more.

The lower FSB means they use higher clock multipliers and thus are more capable overclockers.

While this is an excellent result, these processors are only useful for those already using an LGA775 motherboard.

A Celeron G1101 model based on the 32nm Clarkdale architecture is available but only as an OEM part.

TheCeleron E3300might only be 8 months old but it’s nothing new for the LGA775 socket.

The Celeron E3300 operates at 2.50GHz versus the more expensive E3400 that does the trick at 2.60MHz.

This is not a processor that we feel many of you will want to purchase.
