Features
Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution
Dynamic execution is a combination of techniques (data flow analysis, speculative
execution, out of order execution, and super scalar) that Intel first implemented
in the P6 microarchitecture used in the Pentium® Pro processor, Pentium®
II processor and Pentium® III processors.
Intel® Intelligent Power Capability
Intel® Intelligent Power Capability is a set of capabilities designed
to reduce power consumption and design requirements. This feature manages
the runtime power consumption of all the processor's execution cores. The
result is excellent energy optimization enabling the Intel Core microarchitecture
to deliver more energy-efficient performance for desktop PCs, mobile PCs and
servers.
Intel® Advanced Smart Cache
The Intel® Advanced Smart Cache is a multi-core optimized cache that significantly
reduces latency to frequently used data, thus improving performance and efficiency
by increasing the probability that each execution core of a dual-core processor
can access data from a higher-performance, more efficient cache subsystem.
Intel® Smart Memory Access
Intel® Smart Memory Access improves system performance by optimizing the
use of the available data bandwidth from the memory subsystem and hiding the
latency of memory accesses.
Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost
The Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost is a feature that significantly
improves performance when executing Streaming SIMD Extension (SSE/SSE2/SSE3)
instructions.

FYI you can overclock this processor to surpass the midrange core 2 extremes at 3.60GHZ stable with 3/8 liquid cooling systems.

I was hesitant to pick up this CPU, thinking that it couldn't possibly make that much of a difference from my 3.4 GHz Pentium D. I am completely dumbfounded by how much faster my machine is with this processor. My power consumption is down, and it overclocks like a champ (40% OC, with NO heating or stability issues!). This CPU is a steal for under $250.

Stunningly fast at a good price point as of this writing. About twice as fast as the Pentium D 805, another value chip at its price point. I'm running the E6600 in an Intel DQ965GFE motherboard for a fast, stable, stock system that can utilize the full 1066 MHz FSB speed. The CPU is about 2/3 the power dissipation of the PD 805, resulting in a quiet box. CPU temps are 37 degrees C or less. Coupled with an XFX Nvidia 8600 GT graphics card, this chip and mobo is capable of very heavy-duty scientific molecular graphics.

VERY Fast CPU. Doesn't even compare to any cpu's I've ever purchased. Good overclocker too, It's at 3.2GHz right now and everything is running perfectly. HIGHLY reccomend this to gamers out there ! This cpu wont bottleneck your high end gpu's (8800/2900). INSTALL TIP: When you're applying the thermal paste, make sure to put a thin line, spread it, and make sure the whole cpu is covered with a nice thin layer )

Nice CPU! OC'ed to 3 GHz on stock cooling, and it never runs much aboove 31C. Using Nvidea chipset, it is very fast and stable. Couldn't get it above 3GHz, but then I didn't try very hard, just set the FSB to 1333 and off it went. Recommended.

only sell NEW processors purchased direct from the manufacturer or from factory
authorized distributors. We will never sell a "pull" (which is a CPU
removed from an assembled system at some manufacturing plant) or a used processor
