About this product

Product Information

Breathe new life into your aging PC by replacing its slow processor with the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Kentsfield. These quad-core processors can handle your upgrades. Intel managed to cram four high-performing computing cores into this 65-nm chip. The quad-core Intel processor has a fast clock speed of 2.66 GHz. You can achieve even higher speeds and incredible performance after overclocking it. This device is powerful enough to run demanding PC games and render them smoothly in full HD resolution. When paired with an equally powerful graphics card, you'll enjoy a next-generation gaming experience. This is because the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 delivers advanced physics and artificial intelligence.Thanks to the processor's quad-core design, multitasking is easier than ever before. The hardware will automatically assign each core a different task. You can run multiple programs or downloads in the background without putting any duress on the CPU. You can access programs simultaneously, even while you're playing a game or browsing the web. This multi-core microprocessor will improve your productivity and let you get more work done. It also delivers twice the performance for highly-threaded software applications, such as games and media. With the processor's advanced security features, it can prevent dangerous buffer overflow attacks from infecting your computer. Based on Intel's Core 2 micro-architecture, the QX6700 boasts a 1066 MHz front-side bus speed. The FSB is the part of the microprocessor that transfers data between its different components. It also has a large 8MB of L2 cache memory. This is a smaller, faster source of memory that stores the most frequently accessed data from the main RAM. It means that the processor delivers larger bandwidth and faster speeds than previous Core 2 Duo CPUs. The Extreme QX6700 boasts five major technological advancements that boost performance by as much as 40% over comparable processors. The Intel Wide Dynamic Execution technology delivers more instructions per clock cycle, improving the processor's execution time and energy efficiency. The Intelligent Power Capability carefully manages the processor's power consumption by turning on individual subsystems only when they're most needed. The Intel Smart Cache system lets all the cores share access to the L2 data in a much more efficient manner. Smart Memory Access optimizes the use of data bandwidth, ensuring data is located closely to where it's needed. The Advanced Digital Media Boost technology accelerates multimedia capabilities. Intel's Extreme QX6700 card operates at a maximum temperature of around 65 degrees Celsius or 149 degrees Fahrenheit. Both heatsink and fan cooling solutions are embedded directly in the card. It also has a peak power consumption of 130 watts. That is the maximum power a processor can dissipate while operating at its base clock speed with all cores active. The processing card will constantly monitor the CPU's temperature and make corrections. This helps to keep the computer within a stable temperature range. The Intel Core 2 Extreme fully supports 64-bit editions of Windows operating system on desktop, mobile, laptop, and server-based platforms. It's compatible with an LGA775 socket for use with a wide array of motherboard systems.

  • Powerful 2006 Processor

    I got an old computer from a friend that had a Intel D975XBX motherboard and that was a powerful motherboard back then, and I always wanted to make a monster computer back in 2006 but I had no money. So i decided to get high end parts for this retro machine and I looked into high end intel processors from 2006. The QX6800 and QX6700 popped up. Luckily the QX 6700 was the right cpu for me since it was so cheap. To cut the story short, this processor worked right out of the packaging. Had some scratches on the top and a bit of thermal paste still on, but it wasn't completely dirty. Did some heavy benchmarking and the processor was stable and ran modern applications with ease. I would recommend this processor if you're looking for a cheap yet powerful processor if you have an old Intel 975 Chipset. Warning! It does get hot!

  • Powerful processor

    Pumped power, speed and life into an old PC. This processor replaced an Intel Core 2 dual core running @ 1.86 ghz. The quad core with 2,66 ghz combined with a little more -a couple gigs- of RAM and a 128gb SSD, brought a very old Dell computer back to life in a real way. Running Windows 10 home 64 bit, latest 1703 release. PC's only 10 or more years old. :-)

  • I'm happy with it

    It was the fastest CPU a Dell Optiplex 745 will support so the decision was easy. I had to change a couple settings in the BIOS but that was easy... When I first booted it up with this CPU the POST seemed to take a lot longer to finish and just as I was thinking it might bed bad chip, it proceeded on with the boot cycle. It's way faster than the original CPU and a bargain at 25 bucks. Now I just walk away after I turn it on and I don't notice it takes longer to boot...

  • Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 2.66 GHz 1066 MHz CPU Quad-Core Processor 775 Socket

    Great little CPU to kick up the operations a few notches. Update the BIOS and make sure it will work.

  • Core 2 quad

    Great performance for the age paired with a newer graphics card and ram you can still play current games with good frames per second. Highly suggest you purchase one to save on money for gaming.

  • The Processor

    The processor that I replaced was a 1.8ghz with 2mbs of cache. The Core2 DUO I installed/bought is a Core2 DUO 2.66ghz with 8mbs of cache extreme worth the wait. Just what my Dell Precision 390 needed to complement the SSD

  • Works great, even for nowadays every day tasks.

    If you have a mother board laying around, it's a good match. An OC capable MB will gain you some more performance for free.
