Quad Power
Reviewed by: FlyingScotsman
Have bought a Q6600 to replace my E6600 which I had running at 3.6 (1600x9).After I had my EVGA 680i RMAed(now rev A1) because it did not support overclocking Quad core.
Now got it [email protected] rock solid
You wont get a better chip for the cash.but dont expect that much of a performance gain just yet as there are hardly any programs /games that really benefit from multicore cpus yet.
Top chip well overclockable(if got right mobo) eats anything you can throw at it with ease.
INTEL ROCKS
Hmm, bit of a typo there i reckon.. He's running his quad core at 3.5.. or as he puts it 1600x9 which actually comes to 14400 (14.4GHz) that is fast!!!
I thought overclockers screened the comments before they were posted on the site??

thing is, typo are usually like putting an extra zero or something, but 160 x 9 don't equal 3600 and 600 x 9 also doesn't what on earth did he do?!
