Theres a 5 dollar differnce in the processors yet i've looked at a ton of charts and can't decide which is best. I want the best for gaming.. and future games that will come out need some suggestions on which processor is better. Keep in mind will be on the sager np9262 with a 8800m GTX need max fps!
Right now the E6850 is the better performer because of it raw power. But, as more and more games become multi-threaded (able to use more than 1-2 cores) the Q6600 might regain the lead. That's not to say that the E6850 won't hold it's own in future titles. Looking at the Toms CPU charts though, the E6850 is the winner.
Keep in mind with that xbit review that you should look at the stock numbers and not the OC ones. Sager does not give you the options in the BIOS to overclock so it's mostly out of the question.
Yes i know and for todays games and apps E6850 will do better
also for future its a good option too, because as u see Q6600 is a year old and still not most apps are utlized for QuadCore
