Pros: G0 from Memphis warehouse! I have installed hundreds of the Core 2 processors and all of them have been excellent. from Newegg.com The way you can tell if you are buying the B3 or the G0. The B3 number behind the word ''PROCESSOR'' of the item description is HH80562PH0568M, which starts with HH. The G0 number behind the word ''PROCESSOR'' of the item description is BX80562Q6600, which starts with BX. from Tigerdirect.com Pros: I purchased the Intel 2.4GHz Core-2 Quad processor over the 3.0 Core-2 Duo, due to audio applications, plug-ins, and sound production work I perform on a day-to-day basis. This processor totally rocks, and installation was a breeze. from Newegg.com Pros: H0ly cow I love this thing. For under $200 I went from a single core celeron320 from like 4 years ago. from Newegg.com Pros: Quad Core = powerIntel = reliabilityBest 1066 FSB processor out IMO Cons: Only 1066 FSB, but it that is your MoBo max not nuch you can do about it. Other Thoughts: Upgraded from a E6600 and WOW. from Newegg.com I went from an E6600 to the Q6600, on my Dell XPS 410. I am stuck to a 1066 FSB so I didn't know if this would make much of a difference. from Tigerdirect.com Pros: Quad-Core processor. 2 x 4MB L2 cache. from Newegg.com Pros: Good overclocker, 2x4MB cache Cons: 1066 FSB, 65 nm Other Thoughts: I chose this processor over an E8500 because I believed I could over clock it to 1066 FSB, 3.0 GHz and I would have a quad core running at the same speed as the dual core i was considering, for only about $20 more. I easily achieved the 3 GHz with raising the core voltage, but I haven't gone any higher yet--waiting to buy better cooler. from Newegg.com Pros: 4 cores. Never see more than 25% processor usage with multiple programs running (WoW, Winamp, Firefox, Outlook, Antivirus, etc) Cons: 1066 FSB...could be faster. from Newegg.com Pros: It works as advertised Cons: Quads are a joke right now. Very little software is multithreaded, and even less is quad-threaded, so chances are that those extra cores will do nothing more than convert electricity into heat. from Newegg.com
