If the processor works well for you then then don't even give his words a second thoughts.

Your processor isn't junk- it's just a low end product (I guess it's the P4 516 ?)
The Intel P4 520(2.8 Ghz) is better than this.But I think this processor is fine for office and day to day work such as word processing,etc. It isn't good for gaming.
