Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 - When a core 2 is actually a Core 4

This Intel Core 2 CPU is actually not a dual core processor at all, but has a total of 4 physical cores. This quad core processor is labeled Extreme for a reason. It it an unlocked overclocking masterpiece coming in at a default 2.66 GHz. If that is not good enough for you, the multiplier is unlocked, o you can tweak it to your liking. The TDP is 130W, so you might have more room to play with the addition of an aftermarket heat sink.

While this might seem like just an another overclocked gaming monster, the ability to tap into 4 cores gives this Intel computer processor excellent multitasking ability, and with Intel Virtualization technology and Intel Advanced Digital Media boost, this Extreme Intel CPU makes for an excellent media editing engine or virtualization center also. Multi threading and multitasking are this CPUs specialty, so don't be afraid to throw a few things at it at once. So burn DVDs, listen to your favorite tunes, download a movie or two, all while doing work from the office or school without the lag an stutter of a single (or even dual) Core Intel CPU at the helm.

This is indeed another overclocked monster, but it can work even harder than it plays. Multi core processing is the future, but with the Intel CPU Core 2 Extreme QX6700 you can have it today.
