723493 2008-12-14 20:14:00 Yea i was always gonna go with a Q6600, but the chances of getting 1 around 12th january 2009 will be even slimmer. So the GO Q6600's are new revisions. How do I know if I getting one when I buy a Q6600, and do you think that is why the Q6600 is in low stock all over NZ, they making way for the GO? James281 (13409)

1. Yes:clap

2. Ask for one when you buy it lol!!!:lol::clap

3. Its in low stock because:
A. It's an old quad core cpu.
B. Not making them anymore.
C. Everyone knows the Q6600 GO are good for overclocking and have bought them up.:thumbs:

723495 2008-12-14 21:37:00 As for RAM, unless you wish to run RAM asynchronously, you will want RAM as fast as you expect you FSB to run.

So do I go for CL4 or CL5, obviously CL5 has higher MHz why u said you want RAM as fast as you expect your FSB to run are you talking about the FSB of my MOBO? If you are its 1600*/1333/1066/800 MHz *Overclock speed

So if i cant get a Q6600 on 12th January 2009, which Quad CPU should i go for Either Q9300 $398 or Q8200 $371 price differnece only $30 and Q9400 $473 is to much. Or any others I havent suggested.

Be using PC got gaming so the Q9300 6MBL2 cache be more benifitual vs 4MBL2. Ill try look at some benchmark reivews involving both of them.

You reckon over the new year these quads will drop in price?

Thanks

723502 2008-12-14 22:20:00 lol, this is my first time with computers, and i thought since each year new hardware is been realeased espcically in the beginning of the year that it would make the price of older hardware to drop, and since the producation of the q6600's has stopped it would further more encourage a price drop.
