It seems like VIA is slowly coming back into the processor game. Not a bad desktop processor and it only runs at 20 watts. It maybe not the fastest chip out of the bunch by anymeans but it looks like a nice alternetive processor to AMD and Intel. At only 20 watts It may end up beinging a really good processor to overclock.
