Customer Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
I have always tried to support AMD, and would have if there were only duo cores out. But when I was looking for a processor for my new computer, comparing quad cores, I just had to go with Intel. And I'm glad I chose this one. This processor is great for overclocking. While stock is 2.4GHz, I was able to overclock to 3.0GHz on the stock heat sink/fan and without changing any voltages. I'm currently running 3.2GHz. You really get your money's worth out of this chip.Customer Review: Awesome 65nm Cpu
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this CPU in a comp that I built for a few weeks, and before that, I had it in a dell. First, this is a freat CPU for overclocking. (make sure you get the G0 stepping version, this will enable you to overclock way beond what you can normally do with other 65nm CPU's) So far, I have overclocked mine to 3.2Ghz and under load the hottest its gotten is about 55C. (i'm using a Scythe mini ninja cooler) So, if you want a lower priced quad core, then this one is great!Customer Review: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Quad-Core Processor, 2.40 GHz
Summary: 5 Stars
Great processor for overclocking on a ASUS motherboard. It still worked even though the Gigabyte motherboard fried itself. It does get hot, so don't use the heatsink that comes with it and invest a little extra on some good thermal paste and a better heatsink. It has been running for over one year with no problems. Runs Photoshop, graphics intensive games and Xilinx simulations with great performance. Expect around x2 improvement from stock with overclocking.Customer Review: not to bad for an older quad core
Summary: 5 Stars
very overclockable i have 2 of these and they will hit 3.5ghz with ease one hit 5ghz with more voltage then it is suppost to handle but it will handle more voltages then 3.0 very stable cpu im still a core 2 duo fan for games untill they come up with more multi threading games but atlease they are killer at everything else just fine games i didnt loose that much frame rate though over my core 2 duo when i overclocked them to both at 3.0 ghz to test fromCustomer Review: Quad-Core is Smoothe
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been running the Intel quad-core for about a year and I have never regretted the investment. I am not a gamer, but I do use my pc for streaming video, processing very large data files, running DB2 DBMS, and I seem to have 5+ apps open at any one time. If I had to sum up the results of this cpu, I would say "smoothe and stable." Windows Vista runs very smoothly with all of its services and gadgets. At under $200, what are you waiting for?
