Intel’s QX6850 Processor, The Best Processor In the World

The 3.0ghz quad core processor, 1333mhz FSB, 8mb cache. Is that worth $1200? Then there is the extra cost, you have to have a motherboard designed to support this chip, you have to have either an Intel G33, P35, or X38 chipset motherboard, or a BIOS-updated nforce 600-series board from nvidia. Any of these will cost at least $100 from newegg. And with Intel’s penryn processor being released next year, will this processor actually sell? Well if it hasn’t sold it has certainly cornered the quad core market, and made itself the worlds greatest processor.

Do you think that the Core 2 Extreme QX6850 processor is worth it?
