    Probably trying to hook enthusiast idiots into buying dual-CPU systems that won't give them any benefits. Avoid.

    This is not how it works: both processors are running at 2.8ghz.

    It's a brand name, so it's neither suitable nor unsuitable. This specific configuration isn't suitable for most people.
