Product Description
The Intel Core 2 Quad processor is the latest in cutting edge processor technology for the desktop PC. Based on the Intel Core micro-architecture, the Intel Core 2 Quad processor delivers four complete execution cores within a single processor, delivering unprecedented performance and responsiveness. More instructions can be carried out per clock cycle, shorter and wider pipelines execute commands more quickly, and improved bus lanes move data throughout the system faster. Four dedicated, physical threads help operating systems and applications deliver additional performance, so you can experience better multi-tasking and multi-threaded performance across many types of applications and workload. A 4-pin connector is included for fan speed control to help minimize the acoustic noise levels generated from running the fan at higher speeds for thermal performance. Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T) Execute Disable Bit Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) Intel designed Thermal Solution for boxed processors CPU Speed - 2.40 GHz PCG - 05B Bus Speed - 1066 MHz Bus/Core Ratio - 9.0 L2 Cache size - 8 MB L2 Cache Speed - 2.40 GHz Package Type - LGA 775 Core Stepping - G0 S-spec - SLACR Core Voltage - 0.85V 1.5V

Intel Core?2 Quad-Core Processor Product Highlight
By including up to 8MB of shared L2 cache and Front Side Bus speeds of up to 1066 MHz, the Intel Core?2 Quad processor pushes the technological innovation envelope farther than ever before. For demanding users, this means the latest and most advanced software applications will open and work faster with excellent responsiveness. When used with the latest multimedia software and next-generation games, dropped frames, long waiting times and stuttering performance are history. Intel Technology
Intel Wide Dynamic Execution. Enables the delivery of more instructions per clock cycle for shorter execution times and improved energy efficiency?accomplish more simultaneously and with greater efficiency.
Intel Intelligent Power Capability. Turning off portions of the processor when they aren't being used improves overall energy efficiency and reduces heat production, resulting in a quieter, more energy efficient system.
Intel Smart Memory Access. Increasing available data bandwidth means more multitasking with less slowdown?run more demanding applications simultaneously and accomplish more in less time.
Intel Advanced Smart Cache. Placing data closer to the processing cores improves platform responsiveness and performance with a wide range of applications.
Intel Advanced Digital Media Boost. Accelerates performance with a broad range of applications including video, speech and image, photo processing, encryption, financial, engineering and scientific applications.
Multimedia
With professional-grade photo, music and HD video editing software readily available for consumers, it's becoming increasingly popular to create, edit, and share entertainment with friends and family. Unfortunately, these same applications are notoriously performance hungry. Built to handle the most demanding software, the four cores of this Intel processor help ensure that when you're working with high-resolution photos, exporting your next audio mashup, or editing HD-quality home movies, your computing platform will be able to keep pace with your creative muse.
Multitasking
A computing platform featuring the Intel Core 2 Quad processor maximizes processing efficiency, allowing users to juggle multiple projects in multiple applications without experiencing the slowdown typically seen with traditional single-core processors. As a result, work and creative projects will get done sooner.
Gaming
Next-generation gaming is more than just pretty environments and smooth motion. Behind the incredible visual realism of waterfalls or the unlucky ricochet of a bullet are intense, high-speed calculations of asset streaming, terrain generation, 3D rendering, and physics effects. When running select next-generation games, each of the cores in the Intel Core 2 Quad processor can be dedicated to individual processes, resulting in smoother, more lifelike graphics and further blurring the line between virtual and reality.

Great Processor! January 4, 2009
Great product! Overclocked to 2.5 Ghz on a XFX 680i SLI LT, idle temperatures for the cores is usually around 44c (CPU Itself is 38 C), at maximum load it's at a max of 57 C. I have the stock fan, and the air flow in my computer is not good, so it's safe to say you can overclock this safely to 2.5 ghz.
Very Fast!!! December 22, 2008
Very fast cpu. 4 cores so its built for the future since not alot of software can handle four cores right now, I been able to push to 3.52ghz on just air which is not bad of a overclock but it runs so fast on stock you may not need to overclock it. Shipping was fast another good experience with amazon. Thank you again Amazon.
Awesome 65nm Cpu December 20, 2008
I've had this CPU in a comp that I built for a few weeks, and before that, I had it in a dell. First, this is a freat CPU for overclocking. (make sure you get the G0 stepping version, this will enable you to overclock way beond what you can normally do with other 65nm CPU's) So far, I have overclocked mine to 3.2Ghz and under load the hottest its gotten is about 55C. (i'm using a Scythe mini ninja cooler) So, if you want a lower priced quad core, then this one is great!
Great Entry level Quad Core from Intel! December 16, 2008
This processor is a great entry level processor for those who want to prepare for the future. It may be the "baby" of the Quad cores, but it is not underpowered at all. Personally, I Have managed to overclock my Q6600 to 3.0Ghz, a moderate increase from the stock 2.4Ghz. However, make sure you have proper cooling before attempting to overclock anything. My processor has the old B3 stepping, which makes it run just a bit hotter than the C0 stepping. Great choice for any computer that needs to be able to multitask constantly. :D
 Fair December 16, 2008
I love the Quad Core I just don't like the heatsink. I initially had a problem where my computer was constantly shutting off when I would play a game. I returned one to amazon due to Intel's tech support. Amazon sent me another Q6600. I installed and had the same problem. I purchased a bigger exhaust fan, after market heatsink, and another fan to help circulate the air inside my case. Everything worked fine after that and my temperatures went down drastically. Would recommend but buy an after market heatsink.
