Pros: Overclocking, Quad Core, Cheap, Lasts Long

Cons: Temps, power usage, outdated

Quite simply amazing.

Bought this in 2007; still runs great, OC'ed to 3.3GHZ, used to do 3.4GHZ.

Kicks ass in alot of games still. Chip just feels awesome. Was a Champion at time of release, cheap.

Honestly, I am upgrading soon to a SB system most likely, because performance in some stuff is iffy...but I'll be sad to see this guy go. Probably use it a HTPC for a new TV I plan to buy.

Since the release of the C2D & C2Q, AMD has never been able to match them. The Q6600 shown here, beats some of AMD's latest offerings...this many years later. Shows how well it was made.

My sentiments exactly, I still have my chip running @ 3.6Ghz for 2+ years now and it's still going strong! I will definitely be keeping this as well and use it on an HTPC build!
