What's it worth exactly ???

First of all, G3258 can do wonders.

Reason i gave it a 2 star :

In Amazon global website, the same processor costs $60, which translates around INR 3700.
Fortunately, Asus and many manufacturers support overclocking 3258 on their B85 and H81 chip-set based motherboards, which costs around $60 again, so the cost for both CPU and Motherboard would not exceed 120-130 $, i.e Rs 7500-8000.

But here in India, the processor itself cost around 5300 and a good motherboard that could unlock the pote...

Gives performance of i3 (in gaming)

The only difference between this and i3 is that it is having a little less performing in-built gpu and it is also not having hyperthreading.

It is a great overclocker and it should be easy to get it to 4.0 GHz.

If you are a gamer you should know that you can't do great wonders with an in-built gpu and hyperthreading.

I overclocked it to 4.4 and paired it with an R9 270.
Results are
1- Watch Dogs Ultra 35 fps 1080p
2- Battlefield 4 Ultra 50 fps 1080p
3- Crysis 3 Very high settings 55 fps108...

Great processor

I've bought this with Gigbyte H81M-S1. I can easily overclock with it. It's really a nice processor for low budget gaming pc. Even without dedicated graphics card I was able to play games with playable frame rates. (NFS Most wanted 2012, Tomb Raider 2013, Call of duty World at war etc). Windows 7 score for graphics was 6.8 which is much batter then my old Nvidia GT 520. I've bought a Nidia GT 640 DDR5. Waiting for delivery.

Highly overpriced little beast...

im using i3 3220 but this processor had a great overclocking capabilities since it has an unlocked multiplier with a good cooler and mobo it can reach 4.4ghz clock speed easily and can kick i3's in single core performance.this enables gaming enthusiasists with limited budget to buy a beasty graphic card and later upgrade to 4th gen or next gen i series processor but instead of pricing it throw away price of 4k its highly priced where you can buy an i3 or fx 4300....

nice processor

I was planning to buy this processor, as found this of great value when saw my friend playing games on this after a little over clocking. I had made up my mind to get this but i stumble upon an i5 3470 + b75m-d3h mobo from one of my friend at very low rate so bought that instead.
Anyways this is an awesome processor. You can overclock this processor but yes you will need to invest some money for the aftermarket cooler.
