This chip has a cpu mark of about 2650 and a single thread score of about 920 calculations per cycle. Not at all bad for a an old chip you can get for a really low price. I had the motherboard and a complete system with a dual core chip. It was a no-brainer to upgrade to this one. More than enough power for the typical home user. Chip is about 10 years old - it is NOT the latest or greatest but I have found it to be one of the fastest, most common and most cost effective Quad chip for LGA 775. Great choice for a desktop for you student - plenty of power for Web browsing, research, Word Processing etc.

RATE AND REVIEW HiRO H50317 USB 3.0 11ac AC1200 Wireless Adapter 2x 5dBi Antenna
My child was experiencing a lot of buffering while watching Youtube on his old AIO computer with its built in WiFi. I upgrades to the Hiro and he has NOT had any problems since! It does what it says and supplies a fast connection assuming you have a modern High Speed Router to connect to.
