Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Dual-Core Processor, 2.4 GHz, 4M L2 Cache, LGA775

Customer Review: Power with a small price
Summary: 5 Stars

This CPU is BLAZING fast. Don't be warded off by the mere 2.4GHz speed. Didn't you know? Speed isn't everything, especially with these models blowing away competition.

Pros: This is a high performance CPU, no doubt about it. It can outperform almost all AMD processors under the 6000+ series. But wait, there's more. This CPU was made to overclock. You can in some cases overclock by 50% even with stock cooling. I am using a Coolermaster Aquagate Mini R120 water cooler kit and have temps of 32C idle and 36C full load at a stock speed of 2.4GHz (2.39GHz if you want to be accurate about it). With an overclock to 3.6GHz (50%), I have 40C idle and 45C full load. Amazing. Simply amazing. Not only is the performance amazing, but the price is very affordable. This is great for the enthusiast or even somebody who is on a tight budget.

Cons: The truth is, there are no cons, unless Intel dominating the market is a con ;).

Other thoughts: I suggest you have a high quality motherboard such as EVGA's 680i series. If you're also going to overclock, you'll need a third-party cooler for efficient cooling.
