    if only i played a game that benefitted from a quad core...oh well.

    the main factor for these things as far as i am interested, is heat output.

    i cant foresee running one at more than 450x8....and that is achievable now with q6600 @ 400x9...q9450 will be less heat restricted obviously...but highly restricted by mobo fsb imo.

    im sure the penryn chippies are superior (clocking potential)to kentsfield ...but i wish they'd bring them out with higher multi's at lower cost

    500x8 24/7? sure: good luck.


    they arent mainstream / are a tiny &#37;>.< age of the market


    i reckon this pricing wood be betta
    q9550 $316
    q9450 $266
    q9300 $183
    to sell more quads vs c2d's.

    Looks like I'm stuck with a Q6600 for 4+GHz quadcore benching as I can't afford to drop $500+ on a quad. Really was hoping for some 45nm goodness. Going to be sad though when 4.6+GHz Q6600's are crushing the equally priced 45nm chips when they can only hit 4.2GHz

    yeah but.... i'm thinking about the fsb limits of the mobo chipsets

    i thought the chipsets were having some trubble with higher fsb's for quad cores?...vs c2d's

    isnt that right?

    Looks like I'm stuck with a Q6600 for 4+GHz quadcore benching
    444x9?...noway is that 500x8 is it?

    Figure 8x multi chips will max about 400-500 MHz lower than 9x multi chips. 8x isn't even slightly competitive except against.. other 8x chip Would be silly to have a cascade to bench at 4GHz Need a 9x or 10x multi chip to abuse

    looks like we will have to get 2 cpu's
    a E8500 for clocking it like nuts and a Q9450 for everyday use

    nothing wrong with that though... we paid more for a single cpu in the past though

    Lack of BIOS support the reason you dont run it at 8.5x?

    I thought Q9450 was supposed to be 8x333? Have I missed something here? Nice 1.10v haha, guess it's 1.15v stock vcore as 1.35v was for Kenstfield.

    He means Q9550 ... actually 45nm all can run at 1.10v @default

    Ahh sorry didn't notice there were 2 different pics. Any chance of some quick overclocking shots?

    i was thinking why does it go from Q9300 to Q9450? would you assume there would be a Q9350 and Q9400?

    my guesses:
    Q9350 would have 12MB cache but same clockspeed as Q9300
    Q9400 would have 6MB cache but same clockspeed as Q9450

    kinda like E6300 2MB and E6320 4MB.
