It's still a good processor, not for gaming, but it's still running in my second homeoffice PC and still performs (seems to be unkillable).
I think after the years, the best upgrades were Q6600, FX-8350 and for now a Rizen-Prozessor are the best solutions for best performance. (compared to pricing).
You can still get good performance with this cpu. Mine is @3010Mhz and its performance is decent. Spectre and meltdown patches have made it worse though.
its worth do oc right now???? i have https://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Socket-Cooling-Rohs/dp/B000RPB9QW > normal fun…. and any have a good guide for oc :D? y have p5qc motherboard
Hi mates. I have a question for someone who can give me a professional answer. I got this cpu with 4GB of DDR2 for free. Can you tell which GPU(old) is the best for it, like the sweet spot, where there is no bottleneck or at least very low.
Gtx 650 ti for stock speeds if you overclock and get4gb more ram you can go with 660ti
i will recommend you a gtx 1050 ti
The beast! I am still using this monster of CPU :D
I'm finally away from this wretched CPU!
this is the best cpu ever made by intel
It WAS. I said it was wretched because i couldn't overclock it and i was stuck with it for so long.
i also cannot overclock it but it is still good for somes games not 60 fps but 30 fps
Lion, it's 2017, i didn't want bottlenecks, i wanted more power. And i got it.
i know it cannot run lot of games just wanted to say how good it was
Yeah i know.
i still have it and i overclocked it to 3.00ghz playing the most recent games without problems hhh YEAH!!
And i have a different CPU clocked at 3.6GHz overclocked and i have no problems at all. xD
I have over clocked at 3.0Ghz and i can easily play the latest titles on 50 fps
this monster is the best quad ever made in intel history
Best quad id say is i5 2500k :D
i also like core i5 6600
I have an i5 6600 in one pc and a q6600 in the older one. 6600 seems an awesome number for quad cores^^
Would this work on a Fujitsu Siemens D2438-A2 with an Intel 975X, BIOS version 5.00.
Some guy here says it does https://forum.ts.fujitsu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24893 but i really wanna make sure, got this for 5eu
my fking i5 is worse than this ;( cry
because it is laptop
Got this beast from local computer store for 5 euros ;d
