Hey mike
it will fit and work fine although won't cool as well as the stock heatsink from a Q6600 . . . the E7200 is a newer 45nm chip compared to the older 65nm Q6600 . . . Intel® shipped the DualCore 45nm chips with a "slimmed" down skinny heatsink without a copper slug . . . if your not overclocking then no worries but if you are overclocking (which you should be with a Q6600) then get the marshmallows out!

Arctic Freezer Pro 7 keeping my o/clocked Q6600 at a nice low temp, and this is higher than usual as I've got the central heating turned up in the house full bung all day just now...lol!!.

MX-2 for the win.
Half the price and only a tiny fraction behind in performance.
I would'nt be using a 45nm cooler on a Q6600 though, especially if overclocked. It's half the size of the normal Q6600 cooler and no copper core.
