is this a good gaming proccessor, Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 2.13GHz / 2MB Cache / 1066MHz FSB / Dual-Core / Socket 775 / Processor with Fan?

 

[NeedAcpu]

Yes.

If you want to overclock youll have to replace the Stock HS+Fan.

O ya, c2d is about the best at everything right now.

Uhh, not really..

 

[Ste]

Yea rly. Sure you can OC with stock. But how far will you get? You WILL ALWAYS get better overclocks with an aftermarket setup.

A Copper HS, with Heatpipes and Artic silver 5, with a High CFM Fan attached will allow higher OC's than Stock. You cannot sit there with a straight face and say otherwise.

Well, you can, but you would be wrong.

 

[NeedAcpu]

Screw a new heatsink and fan just submerge your case in liquid nitrogen.

you might as well save a few bucks and get the 6300.

For me its either the 6300, 6600 or the quad

what are you referring to? what does 3.0ghz have to do with anything???

and.. no, no you don't need anything better than stock hsf for overclocking... you could easily get a steady 2.6 with any c2d with stock hsf... and that IMO is very good

and STE who are you to judge... do you own a c2d??? i know i do... lol.. and have tried plenty enough with it, to know stock HSF is enough
