Abstract: Affordable quad-core, eventually. Hot on the heels of the Core 2 Duo launch, Intel came out and released the world’s first quad-core desktop processor last November. Given how powerful the Core 2 Duo had proven to be, we wondered how much of a performa...
Four Core 2 processors in one package; tremendous performance on multithreaded applications; great game performance.
Little gain in many applications; expensive; L2 cache not shared between the two Core 2 dies.
At this speed and power usage, we would expect the CPU to cost a couple hundred dollars less than it does. The cost is still outside the mainstream, and power-users are better off springing for the Core 2 Extreme QX6700....
Intel has been in a real roll of late, first by introducing the impressive Core 2 Duo and Extreme lines, and then following that up with the first desktop quad core processor architecture. After launching the Core 2 Extreme QX6700, Intels next move h...
Abstract: Now that their initial quad-core launch is successfully behind them, in 2007 Intel plans to take the technology mainstream. Today’s introduction of the Core 2 Quad Q6600 is the first step in that direction. But is the Core 2 Quad Q6600 up for the ch...
Incredibly fast at both multithreaded and single threaded applications.
Motherboard companies still need time to make their boards able to overclock this beast. Power usage is quite high....
It is clear now that Intel have reclaimed the performance crown, with this chip totally annihilating every other desktop chip on the market. However it will still be many months before release, and the cost of this chip is expected to be somewhat provo...

From all the above results, the only reason to buy the Q6600 over the E6600 or the 6700 would be if you do a LOT of encoding, rendering etc etc. The performance boosts for compression/decompression, and encoding is unsurpassed. However, if youre a ca...
Abstract: After losing the battle lines consecutively for three years, the second half of 2006 saw a complete reversal of fortunes for Intel and their Core microarchitecture range of processors. From holding the rear-end of processor performance in ...
Globalement, on retrouve un kit assez sympathique. Un boitier permettant une gestion de led ultra complète accompagné de 2 ventilateurs à la fois design et performants. J'avais un peu peur d'être face à un produit « trop cher » mais quand on voit le nombr...
Abstract: Véritable cerveau de l’ordinateur, le processeur se doit d’être choisi avec le plus grand soin. En effet, si le nombre de fabricants de processeurs x86 grand public s’est réduit comme une peau de chagrin au fil des ans, la quantité de modèles différent...
Abstract: Parmi les sujets que nous réclament à corps et à cris nos lecteurs depuis des années, il y a la réalisation d'un large comparatif de processeurs. Souvent lorsque nous nous intéressons à un nouveau modèle de processeur, nous le comparons à la génération...
