Overclockers Dream!,
Impressive! I bought this CPU together with 2Gigs of Kingston Hiper X DDR2 PC9600 1200Mhz Memory.
In order to get my ram running at the advertised 1200mhz speed from the stock speed of 800mhz, I had to overclock it along with the system FSB.
I’m currently running this CPU at 3.2Ghz (from the 2.66ghz stock) and it glides along smooth as silk! Using a Scythe SCINF-1000 fan & Heatsink, I keep temperatures below 55 degrees on full load. Very impressive.
I totally recommend this CPU over the much more expensive “Quad-Cores”. With a little overclocking, you will find out that this little monster has a lot of hidden potential just waiting to be released!

|Good, Obsolete,
There’s no reason to buy this processor at this price anymore. While it was great when it came out, there’s better available now. These are compatible with whatever motherboard will take an E6700, too. Try the E7200, Q6700, or others. Don’t overspend on the FSB if your motherboard or RAM doesn’t support it, but by all means, there’s faster, cooler, cheaper processors out there now.

|E6700 runs cool and fast,
Finally I put together a shuttle box SD32G2 using an Intel CPU, E6700 conroe. I used 2 GIG of corsair twinx 8500C5 DDR2 and a modest video card
EVGA GeForce 7600 GT PCI-E. I overclocked my system to 3.2 GHZ. I had to
bump up the core and ddr voltage slightly for the system to pass a 24 hour prime95 torture test. I’m running windows XP Pro x64 and Linux Kubuntu 64 bit rock solid! It took only 1 second to calculate Pi to
1,000,000 digits using Mathematica version 6.0. E6700 is unbeatable when it comes to price & performance!
