Great CPU, does everything and more than I'd expect it to do given the fact that mine is in a Chromebook. This thing runs games great, at least when running Arch Linux. Chrome OS is terrible for gaming performance though so anyone with a Core i5 based Chromebook should mod their device and run a different linux distro that actually lets you use your gaming performance

It's actually quite snappy for a 15w CPU, using the web, spreadsheets and other light software feels just as fast as my 6700k.
