— Intel Core 2 Duo E8400(olso all e8...) is amazing CPU. It has 6MB L2 cash which makes it amazing. Also it's overclocking abilities are also crazy. It can work on 4Ghz easily. 65W TDP is also not much(2008?) it can handle +5GHZ sometimes(I think the best was 5.3 Ghz(which i9 9900K can't(joke)).
— 10 years old but still enough for browsing on web and handling email tasks
— Better than 8550u
— Still best bugget CPU (Thamks to Vega 8) :)
— Good SSD for beginners
— i5 vPro is perfect for everything
