I love the Quad Core I just don't like the heatsink. I initially had a problem where my computer was constantly shutting off when I would play a game. I returned one to amazon due to Intel's tech support. Amazon sent me another Q6600. I installed and had the same problem. I purchased a bigger exhaust fan, after market heatsink, and another fan to help circulate the air inside my case. Everything worked fine after that and my temperatures went down drastically. Would recommend but buy an after market heatsink.
Great Entry level Quad Core from Intel! [Posted on 2008-12-16]
This processor is a great entry level processor for those who want to prepare for the future. It may be the "baby" of the Quad cores, but it is not underpowered at all. Personally, I Have managed to overclock my Q6600 to 3.0Ghz, a moderate increase from the stock 2.4Ghz. However, make sure you have proper cooling before attempting to overclock anything. My processor has the old B3 stepping, which makes it run just a bit hotter than the C0 stepping. Great choice for any computer that needs to be able to multitask constantly. :D
Awesome 65nm Cpu [Posted on 2008-12-20]
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!
Very Fast!!! [Posted on 2008-12-22]
Very fast cpu. 4 cores so its built for the future since not alot of software can handle four cores right now, I been able to push to 3.52ghz on just air which is not bad of a overclock but it runs so fast on stock you may not need to overclock it. Shipping was fast another good experience with amazon. Thank you again Amazon.
