5.0 out of 5 stars FAST FAST FAST! Overclockable and stable., June 2, 2007

Wow! This chip completely obliterates my Dual Core Intel D930. I have the E6600 in an MSI P6N SLI Platinum Motherboard, powered by a 500 watt Antec power supply, and cooled by a Cooler Master RR-LCH-P9E1 92mm UFO CPU Cooler. At factory settings it runs VERY cool (between 25-32C). This chip could be an excellent choice for underclocking in a fanless HTPC.

I am deeply impressed with how fast this chip is at its factory settings. With the right mobo and cooling, you can overclock this thing up to 3.5 - 4GHz!

This is my second Intel build, and i have to say that it is impressively easy, stable and customizable.

Great CPU... fast, stable, dual-core, overclockable. I overclock mine to 3.15 GHz with standard voltages! Intel is back with Core 2 Duo. Sorry AMD, but I hope you stick around because competition is GOOD!

5.0 out of 5 stars Only One Thing You Need To Know: ITS FAST!, September 25, 2007

This review is from: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Dual-Core Processor, 2.4 GHz, 4M L2 Cache, LGA775 (Personal Computers)

Theres only one thing you need to know about the new 2.4ghz Core 2 Duo Intel Processor: ITS FAST. From the seccond you take this out of the box its an impressive processor. The processor itself is small and fits in any 775 motherboard processor slot. The heatsink is pretty impressive looking and looks like it would be able to cool a nuclear reactor. I used this processor with a Gigabyte motherboard in a recent computer build and it worked flawlessly. The motherboard instatly recognized the processor and I was good to go. Once you get into windows you will notice a significant speed increase over non Core 2 systems. For the relatively low price of such a fast processor I highly recommend this.

5 out of 5 stars.
