Reviews of the Intel Core 2 Duo E6700

    CNET Review

    July 13, 2006

    The Good: Most cost-efficient chip on the market; low power consumption makes it cooler, quieter, and easy to use in smaller PC designs.

    The Bad: Chipset politics between Intel and graphics card vendors hurt gamers, who now have to pick an Intel board for ATI's CrossFire or an Nvidia board for SLI cards.

    The Bottom Line: Intel's Core 2 Duo E6700 offers the best price-to-performance ratio we've seen in a desktop chip. For half the cost of AMD's top-of-the-line chip, you get identical if not superior performance and better power efficiency. AMD surprised us last year with its completely dominant dual-core chips, but Intel regains the crown with Core 2 Duo.

    Review Summary: The E6700 is priced at Rs. 27,500-a sum of money which can comfortably buy a complete PC. So, this CPU is clearly targeted at professionals working with media editing applications, or performance seeking enthusiasts with deep pockets. In contrast, the ...
