    Dual core or quad?

    When you say Video Encoding, What app do you use and how many hours a week ? That would be the only reason for a Quad, you are paying more for the proc initially and more for Power (all the Time) for that benefit. If you encode a little here and there, then its not worth the Quad

    E7200 Wolfdale 2.5 GHz ($120) vs E8400 3GHz ($170)

    hands down the E8400 @ $139 Easier to OC, more cache, faster FSB, all amount to far more than a $19 benefit

    Q9450 or Q9550?

    XP or Vista knows to look for them, all 4 cores would be used, it does not depend solely on the app knowing how to use 4 cores

    Q9450 or Q9550?

    No all the time, regardless of the amount of cache so what you are saying is that with less cache only some cores are overclocked, the others stay at stock speeds ? That would be a No

    Good Motherboard for Overclocking?

    Recommend a < $300 CPU

    Thats the only part one should overbuy, plan for the next 2,3 even 4 years. A cpu can be swapped easy, a MB not so easy, complete reinstall of OS required If you even remotely suspect you may OC, get one of the middle of the line models that have NB/SB heatpipe cooling it will increase...

    Is anyone selling Arctic Cooling's Twin Turbo VGA Cooler?

    This may work out better with a single 120mm fan vs the 2x 80mm's. Just add your own 120mm fan of choice, I am using the YLd12sl and it works great S1 Rev2

    price of core 2 duo/quad after Nehalem?

    Difference now is you are going to have a boatload of people with (E2xxx and E4xxx) dual cores , most lower end that will get a dramatic boost in performance with just a simple swap of the CPU, no reloading of app or OS, so the market for 775 procs will be strong for a long period forward

    Performance Difference Between 3.16GHZ and 2.4GHz?

    If you have an App that was designed to take advantage of all 4 cores and run them on side by side systems one with an E8500 and one with a Q6600 you will see that the Q6600 will finish faster. thats the benefit of having the extra processing power

    Dual-core over quad-core right now for gaming but how about the future?

    Agreed, one year ago a Q6600 was selling in the $500 range, today $179.00. The vast majority of those early adopters could have easily went with a $150 E4500 and just popped in a Q6600 today (if the needed it) and been $$ ahead, and still been "Future Proof"

    Performance Difference Between 3.16GHZ and 2.4GHz?

    If schoolwork is MS Office the a Dual is more than enough, the OS is optimized to balance all active apps across whatever cores are available. Even running just a browser your OS is running approx 40 tasks, that are balanced over the multi cores, go to your active tasks window and you will see...

    Dual-core over quad-core right now for gaming but how about the future?

    For the long term then its wise to get a Quad, Quads are now at the price point that they are becoming more and more popular. At approx $100 more its the better move now that prices are dropping Do games use Dual cores now ? Yes, the entire OS balances workload between the 2 cores, there is...

    E7200 vs. E8400 vs. Q6600 vs. Q9450 Cost/Performance

    There are more factors involved 1) Heat produced by the Q6600 is more especially if one overclocks, it will cost $$ to keep a room cooler as a result 2) If speeds are left at stock ( which keeps heat and power usage lower) the Q6600 runs at 2.4ghz while a Q9450 runs at 2.66ghz. The...

    E7200 vs. E8400 vs. Q6600 vs. Q9450 Cost/Performance

    E7200 vs. E8400 vs. Q6600 vs. Q9450 Cost/Performance

    For $30 over the E7200 the E8400 offers more cache and some better features, plus is easier to OC in 2 years it would still perform quite well

    Q9550 or E8500/E8600 which one to get

    The 160mhz is x 4 cores, on apps that utilize all 4 cores so at stock clock speeds the Q9550 is 600mhz faster As you OC the 160mhz difference will increase A mild OC of a Q9450 vs Q9550 to a very attainable 375fsb increases the difference to 750mhz If the qoal of the Quad is to run quad...

    Intel Cpu choice.

    Not sure who said it but it sounds correct If you OC both the Q9450(8.0) and the Q9550(8.5) the same for example 450fsb Each Core of Q9450 is running at 3.6ghz TPP (total processing powr) = 14.4 GHZ Each Core of Q9550 is running at 3.83ghz TPP (total processing powr) = 15.3 GHZ Diff...
