Wonder of anyone can help me. I have been having an ongoing debate with a friend regarding which of these represents the best overclockers chip. Now, to be clear, 'best' is a subjective view.
To me, best means the chip that can run stably, over a long term period, at the best benchmark performance. Obviously price plays a factor here- given the top end E6600 is twice as expensive as the low end E4300. But, the E6600 also has double the cache of the others to counter it.
What I have been completely unable to find is a overclocked benchmark test which may help settle the argument. Anybody know of any overclocked benchmark tests? Oh, and we have been arguing around air only tests- so uber watercooled systems dont count
If anyone has any references or experiences that may help, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.
