The Q6600 is a good introductory quad core processor for the Socket 775.

Date of Review:  Sep 4, 2009
The Bottom Line: Four cores in an Intel Q6600 versus two cores in the E8600, which will ultimately win the performance battle on the Socket 775, you make the choice!
Review: In the world of IT, we do not get out very often so our biggest thrills surround the arrival of new hardware.  Recently, a new desktop computer from Dell arrived and inside it was the Intel Core 2 Quad, 2.4Ghz processor.  The need to benchmark the...

Fast x4, Overclocks Well if Lucky, but HOT HOT HOT

Date of Review:  Apr 23, 2008
The Bottom Line: The Q6600 G0 stepping represents the current sweet spot for price and performance. Just need better cooling.
Review: It's no secret that Intel's current Core microarchitecture is superior than AMD's current K10. It is also no secret that Intel was ready to unveil a 45 μm refresh of the Core. The quad-core version would be codenamed Yorkfield. Not only will the die...

A quartet beats a duet... every time!

Date of Review:  Dec 30, 2008
The Bottom Line: With the price disparity gap between dual and quad core, there simply is no reason to limit yourself. In this case, more is indeed better.
Review: I purchased my G0 Q6600 from ClubIT back in late October, 2007 when the G0's (the new stepping, at that time, versus the older B3 version) were scarce, so I went with a vendor who guaranteed that I would get one (versus the distinct possibility of...

Best bang for the buck

Date of Review:  Jul 10, 2008
The Bottom Line: A great buy for budget conscious individuals who want peak performance.
Review: This processor is simply amazing. I've been running this chip for about 8 months and haven't had any problems whatsoever.

The stock speed of 2.4Ghz is more than enough for most applications, and even most hi-end games. If you're into...
