Intel has recently launched new Quad core CPU with only 6MN cache like the Q9400, Q9300 & Q9200?

Are these processors really good?

I was to buy a Q9450 but it is very rare on Ebay and it cost over $320 whilst the Q9400 cost only about $ 275 for 6MB cache?

Does the cache memory really make a difference???

Do you think there are other differences between these CPU???

The cache does make a difference. As for your question, no. I have a q9300, only because I could get it as cheap as a q6600. With the q6600 so cheap, and much more overclockerble than both q94 and q93, it makes them seem like a stupid option. Far better to stretch and go for the q9550.
