Intel Core 2 Q9550 Quad Core Processor

    Duration of ownership: 4 Months

    Strengths: FOUR Processors and 12MB Cache makes this CPU FAST!

    Weaknesses:NONE

    Overall Evaluation: Built a new system for video editing and needed some serious horsepower to match my X48 motherboard. Have always favored Intel CPU's and after looking at the Q9550 I had to have it. Paired up with 4GB DDR3-10666 ram I have yet to find any application/s that will bring this CPU to it's knees. Easy to over clock if that's your thing.

    Strengths: Lightning fast

    Weaknesses:Price

    Overall Evaluation: Very fast CPU, works well with my ASUS P5K Deluxe. This chip has relieved my previous E6600 to be used in a dedicated compact home theatre in the living room.

    Overall Evaluation: This processor is now an excellent value. You can get nearly Quad Extreme performance for what you used to have to pay for a Q6600. The large cache on this baby also provides plenty of room for multi-tasking.
