Is my Q6600 the Energy Efficient or the traditional?

[Anchundan]

I've just received my Intel Q6600 out here in China, but I know there are two versions (according to the OcUK site). How do I know which version they've sold me? I know the Energy Efficient version is 95W but I can't see the wattage written anywhere.

What it says on the box :

Core 2 Quad Q6600, LGA775 Pkg
2.40 GHz, 8MB L2 Cache Total, 1066 MHz FSB
PCG 05A
BXC80562Q6600
MM # : 89688???? (the rest is covered by a sticker)
FPO/ : L8??????
S-SPEC : SLACR

At the bottom it says : E33133-001 1.35V max.
Dated 20/02/2008.

SLACR should be the G0 95W version.

Very glad to hear that! Thanks!

also cpu-z/coretemp will confirm the GO stepping once it's installed.

CPU-Z says Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, Kentsfield, 65nm, Family 6, Model F, Stepping B, Ext. Family 6, Ext. model F, Revision G0.

Core Speed 1603.8MHz
Multiplier x6.0

Not quite sure what I'm supposed to be looking at, to be honest!

Revision: G0 means its the 95W version. the older one was B3

Get in the BIOS and start cranking it up. That should make you smile with the Q6600s

i imagine the OP will be overclocking. why else would they be bothered if they had a GO or not? (AlfCheesey, please don't let me down on this. )
