The Q6600 could be found for as cheap as £120 in some places (far cheaper than the EU price of the PII 920), easily clocked to around 3GHz+ with stock cooling, although the PII could be easily clocked higher to around 4GHz~ it still lags behind the 'ancient' Q6600 as the best bang for buck quad.

When you are playing catchup like AMD you gotta start somewhere, now we need to see something that would surpass the i7 fast.

Q9300 basically replaced the 6600 in that spot.
