Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz 2 x 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor Reviews:
This product is getting some seriously hot reviews and should be considered when you buy your next CPU.
Words can not describe the change from a single core amd64 bit to a quad core. The Q6600 G0’s are crazy. I’ve overclocked my G0 from stock 2.4ghz to 3.6ghz (running fsb:ram 1:1) with a tuniq tower (air cooling). That’s a 50% overclock! All my games run extremely well with no slowdowns at max resolutions (including TF2 and Crysis Beta). Quiting from a game or alt tabing is instant, it’s crazy that I can go back to using windows which makes it feel like I wasn’t playing a game before going back (where with a single core it would take 2-3 minutes for windows to return to normal). Absolutely astonished by this cpu.
Wow, the G0 is great! Runs idle with the thermalright u120x at 32 stock speed. The surface was flat out of the box and made perfect contact with the lapped heatsink.
