Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Processor HH80562PH0568M
With four execution cores, the Intel® Core™2 Quad processor blows through processor-intensive
tasks in demanding multi-tasking environments and makes the most of highly threaded
applications. Whether you're creating multimedia, annihilating your gaming enemies,
or running compute-intensive applications at one time, new quad-core processing
will change the way you do everything. Pioneer the new world of quad-core and
unleash the power of multi-threading.
The Intel® Core™2 Quad processor is the latest in cutting
edge processor technology for the desktop PC. Based on the new Intel® Core™
microarchitecture, the Intel Core 2 Quad processor delivers four complete execution
cores within a single processor, delivering unprecedented performance and responsiveness
in multi-threaded and multi-tasking business and home use environments.
The unprecedented performance of the Intel Core 2 Quad processor
is made possible by each of the four complete execution cores delivering the
full power of Intel Core microarchitecture. 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. This quad-core
processor represents Intel’s continued leadership and drive of multi-core
processing and more parallel computing.
Doing More with Intel Quad-core
The Intel Core 2 Quad processor is at the center of today’s most interactive
and content rich software experiences. The evolving set of threaded multi-media
applications, including digital content creation, will shine as users are able
to complete tasks faster. Game play can achieve even greater visualization and
realism as tasks such as artificial intelligence (AI), physics, and rendering
can be distributed across each of the four complete execution cores and run
in parallel.

This brick has been running circles around everything I've thrown at it for over a year.
I cant see a CPU upgrade until at least 2010!

Well I ordered this product shipped very fast! But turns out it wasn't compatible with my motherboard yes it's a socket 775 but its an older model so it doesn't support quad cores. I was very dissapointed in the packaging it came it looked to me like it was used. I called intel, it was like to talking to a brick wall and told me that I couldn't exchange it. So I called Tigerdirect and I recieved EXCELLENT service the man that answered my call was very helpful and let me do an exchanged and even gave me ideas as to what to get. I settled for the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3Ghz 6MB 1333FSB CPU, but thank you tiger for the excellent service

have been running this baby in a striker formula 2 mobo for about six months now,,,he he he it doesn't get any better than this cpu,,,its the only one that isnt' capped, but with ai suite you can overclock this mamma to crazy,,[i love it when they add superlitives like crazy],why would anyone spend 1,17.00 on a processor that can be matched for under 250? it just doesn't make sense!,anyways buy buy buy it nothing can snub this baby crysis or any of the graphic demanding games.

I was a long time AMD supporter, after issues with my X2-5400... I opted to switch back to intel after speaking with coworkers. Tagged on a Xigmatic Scorpion cooler - idle at 16 Celcius. Run Far Cry 2 at full settings on 8800GTS - CPU hits 23-24 MAX. Awesome Processor, can't wait to begin overclocking on PQ5-E

Wow..I have been running an Intel 2.80GHz Dual Core CPU with Temp on Start up at 36.C to 40.C..
Now with this Quad on start up the Temp is 25.C..Really nice..The only problem that i have is that my 4096MB of Ram that i have only runs at 667.MHz.and it is not SLI.So because of this i cant Overclock.But at Factory Stock speed this CPU is super fast,so if any of you that want's to Overclock and have good results you have to get RAM that is (EPP Sertified)or just check this Nvidia SLI/EPP sertified ready RAM=item #O261-7054 at $61.99=Or this Corsair item#C13-2022..Made with Gamers in mind..It just tells you that Tiger is the Best when it comes for any computer need's..Thank's Tiger..

in the Country, we offer the lowest prices in the industry on processors because
we deal in such great volume. If you are comparing our price against another

accept genuine quality, buy from Us.

Please note that all processors may be returned only for defective exchange.
You must purchase a compatible heatsink and fan on the same order as the processor

accept returns for refunds on processors under any circumstances. All processors
will be inspected and tested upon return and any damage caused by poor packaging,
