5.0 out of 5 stars Overclockers Dream!, July 4, 2007

By	Sandro Rodriguez - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Impressive! I bought this CPU together with 2Gigs of Kingston Hiper X DDR2 PC9600 1200Mhz Memory.

In order to get my ram running at the advertised 1200mhz speed from the stock speed of 800mhz, I had to overclock it along with the system FSB.

I'm currently running this CPU at 3.2Ghz (from the 2.66ghz stock) and it glides along smooth as silk! Using a Scythe SCINF-1000 fan & Heatsink, I keep temperatures below 55 degrees on full load. Very impressive.

I totally recommend this CPU over the much more expensive "Quad-Cores". With a little overclocking, you will find out that this little monster has a lot of hidden potential just waiting to be released!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good, Obsolete, July 16, 2008

By	I. Hayles (Seattle) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

There's no reason to buy this processor at this price anymore. While it was great when it came out, there's better available now. These are compatible with whatever motherboard will take an E6700, too. Try the E7200, Q6700, or others. Don't overspend on the FSB if your motherboard or RAM doesn't support it, but by all means, there's faster, cooler, cheaper processors out there now.

By	Janet Mieses De Nuez "Janet Mieses" (MIAMI, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

it's a great procesor indeed but to pricey, if your gonna pay over 300 bucks i recomend the the intel core 2 quad it yust costs under 300 and it has 4 cores and 8mb cache. ten times more recommended, the future its about cores not ghz.
