New stock Q6700 "Energy Efficient" ??

[digitaldreams]

Quote a well known hardware site...

"There are three new Core 2 Duo processors :

Core 2 Quad Q6700 (2.66 GHz - FSB1066 only) Core 2 Duo E6850 (3.00 GHz, FSB1333) Core 2 Duo E6750 (2.66 GHz, FSB1333) Core 2 Duo E6550 (2.33 GHz, FSB1333)

All four utilize the latest G0 stepping of the Conroe core, with 4 MB L2 cache. There is no E6650 because the processors use only even multipliers, which leaves no room between 2.33 and 2.66 GHz."

So the "pre-order" Q6700 is a G0 ???. If so why is it not listed as "Energy Efficient" ??

there is one labeled "Energy Efficient" on the site, but is extra ££, thats gets your "Go " deffo : the other q660 a gamble, ,maybe old stepping or new

Q6700 is supposedly only in G0 flavours so the distinction between energy efficient and not doesn't apply.
