Choosing the central processing unit, the CPU, is by far the most important decision you have to make when you are deciding on what laptop or desktop to buy. Not only does the price of the computer largely depend on what processor you get, but it also establishes how future proof the computer is. There are two main aspects of a CPU that you want to look at before you decide on it, the speed and the user reviews.

Everyone wants the fastest computer in the world, but in truth hardly annoy one can afford what they want. The way to get the best of both worlds is to look at the performance versus price of the processor. The website cpubenchmark.net provides a rank of the CPU value by comparing its benchmark score and its price. This means that the processor you would find in most laptops under 300 dollars, the Intel Atom N455 1.66 GHz, is the same value as the Intel Xeon X5677, a $1,600 super processor. The best thing about cpubenchmark.com is that they have thousands of data points because so many people have used their benchmarking software, so the data is not from one super computer or someone’s $500 multimedia laptop, its from thousands of different configurations of ram, motherboard, graphics cards, and processors.

The next thing you want to look at before you decide on what processor to get is what other users have said about it after they’ve had it for a while. This is one of the reasons why it is not the best idea to go buy the newest processor out there. That model could have some inherent manufacturing defect that you won’t see for a couple months. By then its too late to send it back to where you bought it from and you are stuck dealing with the manufacturer. Best to let others try it first to make sure you get not only fastest processor for you money, but also the most reliable.
