Pros: Great for multi-tasking, low price, overclocks very well
Cons: Can run warm, uses more watts compared to the new 45nm chips.
The Bottom Line: A great buy for budget conscious individuals who want peak performance.

Pros: Can hit 3.5 GHz rock solid stable (YMMV), low FSB and high multiplier (easier OC)
Cons: Bad heatsink mount design, high temperatures (even at stock settings)
The Bottom Line: The Q6600 G0 stepping represents the current sweet spot for price and performance. Just need better cooling.
