at least six-core processor price vs speed

Last updated: 2012-12-24 13:01 US/Eastern

Best processor in a given price range is selected based on performance or value score. Values in column "Score" are computed as performance to price ratio. Additionally, we provide results in multi-core and single-core categories, which gives you four methods of finding the best processor for your intended purposes.

These CPU speed and value tables are built based on performance data from cpubenchmark.net and prices from Newegg.

Every price brackets show tree best processors.
