What Customers Say About Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 Quad-Core Processor, 2.83 GHz, 12M L2 Cache, 1333MHz FSB, LGA775:

I am using it about 8 months ago with my EVGA 780i mobo, two SLI 8800GT GPUs and Windows XP, the only problem I ever faced was limitation of the operating system ;).Highly recommended. Excellent CPU, it comes with a very efficient cooler.
It's the newer round cooler with decent sized fins. Wonderful that the i7 has arrived - prices for this great processor, the Q9550, are dropping. I might be the best judge because I went from a Pentium 4 3GHz to this quad core at 2.83GHz. Until then, I'm computing really fast.
Glad I spent the money on this one. When the i7 motherboards get less expensive, this processor will be obsolete. Works great with Vista 64, an Asus P5Q Pro, OCZ 1066 4Gb of memory, and a BFG 8800GT OC. I have not tried my hand at that yet.
The number of programs I can run at once is incredible. I'd say the cooler is working rather well.Have read that this processor overclocks really well. This is one amazing processor. Inside my Antec P182 the processor under load ran 35 degrees C, within 30 seconds of that load dropped off, it was down to idle no load 25 degrees C.
It comes pre coated with thermal compound. I just haven't been able to get this processor to peg at 100% usage on all four cores yet. Where I would wait and wait on the old P4, software has loaded and done it's work already.The stock cooler is really good.
This chip is less than the Q9450 and it's faster so, don't buy the slow one thinking the price is less than a faster model. I have been used to an older Intel 550 with 4GB of DDR2. Love it. Best bang for your dollar is the E8400 or the Q9550. This Quad runs circles around it. I have it clocked a 3.2GHz and it runs stable with stock volts.
5 out of 5 from my side. I did change the stock cooler. Great Product. I have been using an old Pentium D processor for long time, finally i upgraded to Q9550. Its a bit expensive as compared to famous Q6600 but its really a great item.
Also some programs get confused by the extra cores. Runs alot cooler than my the 6600 it replaced. Old 6600 idles in upper 40's and went all the way up to 60+ under full load. There is a newer E0 stepping that is supposed to overclock better.
Intel would like you to believe that megahertz and pure speed doesn't matter anymore but don't believe the hype.p.s. I recieved the older C1 stepping from Amazon. In conclusion highly overated IMO. If I had to do it again I probaby would've upgraded to a E8600 with it's faster clockspeed instead since I spend more time playing games than rendering.
Very difficult to install correctly and you might bend/crack motherboard in process. It really shines when doing video encoding,using photoshop or using any 3D programs like 3DMax or Maya though. Idles in upper 20C range and maxes out around 50C with all 4 cores at 100% load using stock heatsink and fan. Didn't really help much compared to my old 6600 in Flight Simulator X main reason I upgraded.
Otherwise, a decent cpu all around but probably overkill for most users since most software today still isn't written for multiple cores so most of the time the extra cores go unused. Intel needs to get rid of hard to install pushpin design for heatsink and fan. So that's why I"m taking off a star mainly for that.
