Halli~SPARTA~ Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Kram show your specs so some of the Guru's can say more about it IE MB & socket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usthomsen~SPARTA~ Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 The Q6600 is outdated forget about that. The Q8200 is cheap but u will not gain anything compared to a E6600. U need to step it up further to benefit that is why i suggest the Q9550 or higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
