Great_Gig Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 (edited) I'm at the final decision making of a new build and was curious what cpu OCC forum members would prefer? You don't need to review or comment, just a quick vote and post 1 or 2 for which you would choose . . . 1 = E8400 2 = Q6600 Many thanks, I will total them up and put the scores here later. GG ___________________________________________________ Votes So Far: Up to post #26 we have had 24 firm votes and 1 diplomat. E8400 = 16 Q6600 = 6 It's a wider margin than I thought it would be and thanks to all those who have participated so far - keep posting your votes, so we can achieve a fuller picture. :thumbs-up: Edited June 8, 2008 by Great Gig Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rehit Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 1 i would go with an Xeon E3110 if it is cheaper since they are virtually the same chip. i have had mine to 4.7 GHZ on air cooling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Smith Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 (edited) +1 for 1 Edit: DeepSeaDoc brought an interesting article: See here It seems that a Q6600 is better in gaming... Edited June 7, 2008 by The Smith Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
