[graven101]

Get the e8400, is very good for gaming =]

[tompen1982]

this is a fake the q9450 doesnt work with the asus p5ne sli 650i motherboards even with bios update..

[graven101]

yeah it didnt work. I did bought a Q9450 but the system didnt bootup. BTW nForce 650i doesnt work eith 45nm yorkfields. And this is not "a FAKE" I just didnt have time to edit the info.

[angelayala452]

You probably have 2 idle cores the entire time you're playing games...

[unbelievabubble]

Now I like Australians..even though most of the country is retarded (just to keep peace with you)

I know Q66's are old'ish now, but they crank (GO step that is), and really they push any current GPU to the max, beyond most requirements. Mine was used for gaming and high end rendering (what quads are really good for - rendering). Sold now (check my video), but in the process of rebuilding. I know my stuff, and built before most even knew Q66GO's and 88GTs were released (one of the first in NZ)

[Hardscript]

wow get updated with the hardware man q6600 is fucken old you can hardly even buy them anymore.

[unbelievabubble]

q6600 is 2.4Ghz..

Quadcore all the way!

[andreypushkin]

nice blue and green lights!!

[redneckboy360360]

Not exactly

most games dont support quad although in the future yes it'd be better
