Big or little improvement

Postby sonic » Tue Feb 05, 2008 11:54 am

Just wondering if going from a e6300 to a e6600 would be worth it thats the most my mobo will support. I think it will support any 775 set and 1066fsb
Specs
E6300, 3 gigs 800 Ram, 8800GT oc, 400gig Sata drive, Windows XP Pro 64 Bit..

Clock the 6300 up to 6600 speeds or more and see for yourself?

The problem is I have a OEM bios so most things are locked out is there a way to do it still.

Just get a q6600. I'm pretty sure your motherboard will support it.
