Intel Core 2 Extreme

[wafflehammer]

i think the only use for an extreme edition would be if you had phase change cooling and/or was trying to go for some OC'ing record :|

u would still need special cooling if ur going for ocing record

 

[wafflehammer]

yea i kinda just said and/or because i knew someone would say something about liquid nitrogen lol...

if i was going to get any high end quad it'd be the Q9550 after the price drop :|

At this point, i wouldnt even bother buying a 9550 becuase bloomfield is on the horizon.

Ya since they moved it to September, then forget about upgrading now

higher tdp voltage means more stable?

why ddr3 i dont see any good ddr3 memory and not worth it right now

why they make similar core 2 extreme chips to fool people?

no good ddr3!? lol thats loads of crap

g skill hz's... ddr1600... those can reach ddr2000... and for a set its 150...

you people are just so caught up in paying 50 bucks for 2gb's... my godddd, if you build computers 2 years ago... your computers would all be crap cuz ur all so cheap!

i bought 1gb of ddr500 g.skill hz 2 years ago for 150 dollars

No...ddr3 offers only about 10% more performance for 2-3 times the cost. Thus its useless at the moment.
