So basically, the Q6600 is the safest and most powerful Intel cpu out there 😜,(reply>), @Zer0 Bin0pse I think with the past issues, yeah, I think with this one they said like since 2010 cpus, the Q6600 came out in like 06 or so? But more of a joke since the Q6600 is still a good choice for a free overclockable cpu when paired with a beefy cooling set up. I've seen some decent builds for less than two hundo where they basically just paid for like a decent old graphics card (like gtx 7 or so), ssd and bits and bobs.,(reply>), weren't all intel cpu's built since the late 90ies affected?
