I recently upgraded my Core 2 Duo 6420 to a Core 2 Quad 6600 and of course I was very curious to check out the differences between them. So after doing all my testing in Vista and Xp I decided why not share my results to let other people know what's up with these Quad Core CPUs and if they really are worth it.

Funny. This guy shows the quad-core to win all synthetic benchmarks and making a difference in games only when coupled with SLI, only to conclude: "In gaming, Quad Core is clearly the way to go". LOL

He didn't even bother to match the Q6600 with an E6600.[COLOR=#000000][/COLOR]
