Pros: * Great for video editors* Great for 3D rendering* Overclocks a fair amount Cons: * None that's the processor's fault. My old Asus P5B motherboard could only handle Q6XXX series processors. Before that, my "Dual Core Ready!" Asus P5LD2 could only handle Pentium D processors and no Core 2 Duo or Core 2 Quad processors. from Newegg.com Other Thoughts: Dude, OC'd to 3.8 and booted, seemed to run moderately stable at 3.5 but just got too hot with the stock fan. High max temp is 71. I love my q9400, right now 3.2 on 1.28v(with vdroop) running well. BUY THIS CPU! from Newegg.com Pros: Wicked CPU :D already on 3.5GHz with a low quality air cooler..what more do you want? temps load around 55C..of course room temps are cold.. from Newegg.com Pros: Very fast and handles multiple games with ease after my friend overclocked it 3.2GHz. I can run these 3 games at the same time all very well at 1920x1080 resolution: World of Warcraft, Aion, and Warcraft III; but that would only lag due to my wireless connection. from Newegg.com Pros: This processor flies. First of all, i upgraded my system from a Pentium D 925 to this processor. The pentium D, took an hour and 20 mins to encode a full 4.3gig movie. This guy, takes about 20 mins total! from Newegg.com Pros: FAST, Windows 7 Ultimate and it boots in like 20 seconds. I don't see the point in overclocking just yet since I cant even manage to get cpu usage above 40% Cons: none Other Thoughts: My Setup=============Xclio A380 Full TowerGigabyte UDR3 moboIntel Core 2 QuadCore 2.66 ghz8 gigs of Gskill RAMASUS Dark Knight EAH4870 1G gfx card. from Newegg.com Pros: 4 cores, I mean does it get any better than that? I'll handle overclocking well. from Newegg.com Pros: i upped from the e5400 2.7 duel core for the quad core effect but got way more than expected it can handle everyday tasks gaming and file compressing all at once even with vista (cant wait for win7)got about 10 more FPS in all my games and well I LOVE it well worth the money would def recomend Cons: N/A from Newegg.com Just last night I was transcoding video, browsing the web, plaing back a multichannel DVD and using TurboLister to do bulk updates on a couple hundred listings, and the CPU wasn't even breaking a sweat. For those of you on the fence about E8400 vs. Q9400: don't let the slower clock speed fool you, this processor is almost 50% faster for only a few dollars more - it's a steal of a deal! from Newegg.com Pros: Blazing fast CPU. Overclocked to 3.2 right out of the box with stock volts on a Gigabyte EP45 Motherboard, took all of 2 minutes and this thing is smoking fast and very stable. Cores run between 45-50c under heavy load and 33-37 idle with a Arctic Freezer Pro. from Newegg.com
