The Supreme Commander Sep 17, 2008
By Jacob Heyting
"Jacob"
This processor is excellent. I have it overclocked to 3.4ghz on standard voltage thanks to a small fsb bump. I have it watercooled and it never exceeds 50c even with heavy use. I have had a million (exaggeration obviously) programs open and running and have never seen this processor utilized more than 50-60%.

Still the best bang for buck processor on the market Oct 06, 2009
By Nalisa M. Lishomwa
This is still by far the best bang for buck processor you can get.
Out the box its at 2.8 so which is more than enough to run pretty much anything faster than any Dual core, yes even the E8400 4Ghz.
The Core is easily overclockable to 3.5Ghz at which point it becomes a whole new level of awesomeness, it'll handle any game like Crysis and run them with no problems or hiccups.
I use my processor mainly for console emulation, to put things into perspective i was running a 4Ghz E8400 and the Q9 clocks out 60fps solid where the E8400 would clock 40-55 unstable.
Testing this versus the i7, the gains from the i7 are negligable as they clock the same times with any programs on the market right now, so dont bother going i7 when till much much later.
Q9 is the processor for you.

Solid Great Performer Dec 31, 2008
By Daniel G. Lebryk
Wonderful that the i7 has arrived - prices for this great processor, the Q9550, are dropping. This is one amazing processor. I might be the best judge because I went from a Pentium 4 3GHz to this quad core at 2.83GHz. I just haven't been able to get this processor to peg at 100% usage on all four cores yet. The number of programs I can run at once is incredible. Where I would wait and wait on the old P4, software has loaded and done it's work already.
The stock cooler is really good. It comes pre coated with thermal compound. It's the newer round cooler with decent sized fins. Inside my Antec P182 the processor under load ran 35 degrees C, within 30 seconds of that load dropped off, it was down to idle no load 25 degrees C. I'd say the cooler is working rather well.
Have read that this processor overclocks really well. I have not tried my hand at that yet.
Works great with Vista 64, an Asus P5Q Pro, OCZ 1066 4Gb of memory, and a BFG 8800GT OC.
Glad I spent the money on this one. When the i7 motherboards get less expensive, this processor will be obsolete. Until then, I'm computing really fast.

Good Upgrade Nov 02, 2009
By Omni Presence
"TK421"
At $250 it's still a good option to upgrade your older C2D, especially a 65nm part like an E6850 or lower.
I got mine to replace an E8600 C2D I had overclocked at 4ghz. With this quad overclocked to 4ghz it's a nice new level. Paid $200 at the time which is a fairer price. I went from C2D/4gb to C2Quad/8gb for not too much dough and won't need a new PC for another few years.
Took a bit of tweaking to get stable 4ghz 1.38v overclock (Gigabyte EP45-UD3P and 8gb G.Skill ddr2 1066). Using Noctua NH-U12P cooler. Very happy now that I have it dialed in. System is quiet and fast.
Runs great, stays below 60C. 8800GT screams. No CPU bottleneck here. MW2 runs smooth at 1900x1080 maxed out graphics. I sold my GTX280 and don't really miss it, now that I have this cpu to push the 8800GT.
buy an aftermarket cooler if you overclock beyond 3.4ghz (which is easy at stock voltages).
Most people won't need to overclock though.
Make sure your motherboard is good with the 45nm CPU's. Just because it's socket 775 doesn't mean it will work.
If I were doing a new budget build I'd probably choose the i5-750 or a Phenom X4 on AM3 platform.

Core 2 Quad - Amazing Dec 10, 2008
By Garth Clark
I have been used to an older Intel 550 with 4GB of DDR2. This Quad runs circles around it. I have it clocked a 3.2GHz and it runs stable with stock volts. This chip is less than the Q9450 and it's faster so, don't buy the slow one thinking the price is less than a faster model. Best bang for your dollar is the E8400 or the Q9550. Love it!
