    5 Stars Quick review of Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 / 2.83 GHz processor by Teaser318 02/09/2008
    Easy to install and comes with a fan including thermal paste. It was slightly fiddly to get the fan on to the CPU because the clips didn't want to "click" easily, but this is a small point - how often do you remove the CPU after installation? In Vista (64 bit) the system has the highest core of 5.9 for everything which includes the CPU. There is the alternative Q6600 which has a slower clock speed though people do overclock them to 2.8 , but why not buy a processor that is made and tested officially at this speed?

    Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 If you're looking for a cheap quad core system which is also not shabby in performance front, you can definitely look into the Core 2 Quad Q9550. Although last gen and Intel has already churned out i5 series of processors, they're still good VFM and provides almost at par performance to their i5 brothers. Having used the processor for last 6 months in a machine with moderate full 1080p gaming, 3D modelling, advanced Photoshopping, I have to say that I'm satisfied with the mulla it's providing under the hood of my PC. A good overclocker, which can go all the way upto 4.5 ... more
