windwithme (and his signature wee glass cat) has once again come up with the goods, publishing an in-depth article on the lower power Intel i3-3220 processor. While it might not always be the best choice for overlockers or real high-end gaming systems, the lower 55w TDP and of course, better affordability makes it a great choice or mid-range systems based on Intel’s B75 and H77 platforms.
windwithme puts the entry level Ivy Bridge Core i3 CPU through its paces using a GIGABYTE B75M-D3V and GIGABYTE H77-DS3H, two affordable boards that make good economic sense for a build that might not break world records, but nonetheless still makes a pretty awesome everyday PC.
You can find the full article here on Overclockers.net
More info about the GIGABYTE H77-DS3H and GIGABYTE B75-D3V can be found at their respective product pages.
