CPU UPGRADES IN ALL LGA775 SYSTEMS AT NO EXTRA COST

King Arthur · 25 Feb 2010 at 14:31

We have updated our range of LGA775 Systems to feature the latest E6500 processor from Intel. With its 1066FSB and 2.93GHz clock speed it offers increased performance over the previous generation E5300. This new processor costs more money but thanks to OcUK's awesome buying power we have managed to squeeze it into all of our systems at no extra cost, even including our Primo Trinity at only £274.99 Inc. VAT making it even better value for money.

We have also updated our LGA755 Overclocked Bundle to include this processor and increased its speed to 3.4Ghz for only £229.99 Inc. VAT.

Explain why the Odin and Theo have Ezio from assassin's Creed 2 in their pictures.

Because they come with Assassins Creed II and Operation Flash Point: Dragon Rising.

It would be nice if that was in the product description. Just pointing it out as a selling point. It was pretty confusing just seeing Ezio there.

So is the new e6500 "better" than the old e6600?

King Arthur · 26 Feb 2010 at 17:50

Yes its based on a lower nm manufacturing process meaning it runs faster and cooler, it has slightly less cache though, 2 instead of 4mb.

It will overclock better too.

It replaced the E5300 according to the post? Or are you asking generally?
