While this is an older processor, it is exactly what I needed for my old HP 6200 SFF PC. I run an Open Media Vault & Plex server on this PC and this was one of the CPU's listed that I could upgrade to. With Linux, it was as easy as installing the new CPU, add thermal paste, and the heatsink, power it up and run an update and reboot. The entire process including moving the PC from the shelf to the other room and back took 45 minutes. This CPU is a major upgrade from the i3 that I was running my server on. I also run a PhotoPrism server on this PC and since the upgrade, importing and indexing the photos I upload is much faster and that was the main reason I upgrade the CPU. Overall the CPU performs well and is much faster than the old i3 that was in the PC. It was also about $20 cheaper than the i7-2600 that I could have upgraded to. Benchmarks show that the i7 only has about a 3% increase in performance over this i5, so it didn't make sense to me to spend $20 more for another 3% performance increase.Read full review

I had an older SFF PC with a bottom end processor. Found out the max the Bios could take and threw this in. Big difference. Works so much better.
