Intel Quad 6600

driverheaven.net: With the recent release of games such as Supreme Commander which make use of more than two processing cores many of our readers may be contemplating a move to a Quad core CPU. It is fair to say they are still expensive especially when you look at the ?650 QX6700.

Intel E6600 Core 2 Duo

neoseeker.com: Just like with our E6400, we were able to reach almost 3.2GHz with just the Intel supplied heatsink ? however we knew that was not the limit of this processor, so we switched coolers and used a Noctua NH-12 to try to find the real limit of the processor. Using our Asus P5B, with the latest BIOS, the Noctua NH-12, and two 63CFM 12cm fans, we were able to reach a whopping 3.48GHz with just air cooling! I am not talking about just posting, or getting to the Windows desktop ? for those metrics, we were able to reach up to 3.7GHz ? I am talking running our whole set of benchmarks, without problems, and being completely stable at 3.48GHz.
