Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Processor HH80562PH0568M
With four execution cores, the Intel® Core™2 Quad processor blows through processor-intensive
tasks in demanding multitasking 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 multithreading.
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.
Note: A CPU cooling fan is not included
with OEM CPUs, but may be added separately.

This is the best processor for your money. G0 Stepping, high temperature durability and therefore is easily over-clockable [if required]. People may tell you that it's performance is equal to core 2 duo, that's only because most software don't effectively use core-processor technology yet. So that only means your investing in something that's future-proof. As a noob overclocker I got it to go to 3.6 Ghz, but without proper cooling I reset it back. I'll step-up when necessary, 2.4 Ghz is more than required for me now.
