Core i5 661 is a obsolete processor now a days. These processors are based on Intel's Nehalem architecture but Intel's latest generation processors are called Sandy Bridge and their nomenclature is like Core i7/i5 2X00/2X00K where X may be 3, 4, 5 and 6. These processors redefined the desktop processor performance level. So better opt for these.
Please fill the template 1st to get optimize solution.
