An Overclocking Monster

Reviewed By: JimmyXeon on 9/14/2007

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: I love this processor!
After I got my cooling issues sorted out and discovered that my stock Intel heatsink and fan were not securely fastened to my motherboard I'm surprised that I never had problems with this thing in the 4 months before I discovered what was happening.
I finally decide that the stock HSF isn't worth saving and so I bought a CNPS9500 AT aftermarket cooler from Zalman.

Cons: Intel has a bad heatsink fan design lately, so if you are getting this CPU just go ahead and buy an after-market cooler too if you even think you might overclock.
While you are at it, go ahead and pick up a tube of Arctic Silver 5 too.

Other Thoughts: If you are in the market for a Core2 Dual Core then just buy one of these.
It has the large 4MB L2 cache instead of the 2MB and that will make the same processor behave about 10% faster according to most benchmarks.
I would buy one again.
My 2.4GHz is now living life as a 3.6GHz, and it is stable.

Good Purchase

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Installed very easily. I would have rated higher if I didn't know there were better processors out there.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: My old server had a P4 1.7GHz and ran at 100% most of the time. This new setup runs at 25% load. My MB is a Asus P5M2 with 4 GBs of RAM.

Good chip.

Reviewed By: appleoddity on 6/27/2007

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Well known reliability of a server based chip that runs on desktop motherboards. This is your E6600 Core 2 Duo equivalent. Will work on any core 2 duo motherboard. Overclocks to 3.15Ghz (350Mhz FSB) without any increase in voltage, and no noticeable heat increase even at full load.

Cons: None that I know of.

Other Thoughts: For a few extra bucks you can get the dependability of a server chip on your PC.
