Here is a review of the Core i3 3225:
http://www.iopanel.net/iintel-core-i...aphics-review/
In CB 11.5,the 3.3GHZ Core i3 3225,scores 3.31,and the 3.3GHZ Core i3 2120 scores around 3.19 it seems.
Looks like i'll have to pip for one of these later along with a new board as my brothers motherboard finally gave up the ghost and i got a buyer for the G620.
Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

Yep. My brother has had constant trouble with build though (Z75/G620) and yesterday morning the board completely died so its back off to Aria. I already planned on selling the CPU to upgrade him to an i3, so these appear to have released at the right time.

Strange pricing structure - why would anyone buy the 2100 when it's the same price as the 3220??

For a media centre PC HD4000 is key. If only HD2500 then not really up to it.
So if these come in 35 TDP and HD4000 then the i3 looks very tempting
Sadly I have just paid for and installed an i7-3770T in my HTPC so no need to change, comes in at 45 TDP but seems to be running a little hotter than I would like (about 3C too high), but I have suspicions that the ASRock Hardware monitor may be overstating temps (as has happened on other ASRock boards)
The Ivy Bridge chips replace the Sandy bridge ones.
