Best CPU for a budget build

It is the best CPU for a starter/budget build. 6 Cores at 3 Ghz is quite amazing for the price. I would honestly recommend this to anyone looking for an intel build.

Best budget CPU on the market. Hands down.

If you are building a PC with a total budget of anything less than 1000$ this is the CPU for you. This thing is a STEAL! The price to performance you get out of this is u paralleled with any other chip. I eventually upgraded to a 9600k and I regret it. Saw basically no difference in performance.
