Dalo Harkin Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 August should see Intel release its latest dual core CPU model, the 3.33GHz Core 2 Duo E8600 and with it, a core update for the existing E8500 and E8400 that will see their steppings changes from C0 to E0. The Q9650 and a handful of new Xeons will launch. Early indications are that the new E8600 has plenty of performance potential. Overclockers at Taiwanese site Coolaler.com have managed to boot into Windows with an air-cooled E8600 clocked at 5GHz (using a 500MHz FSB, as the CPU has a 10x multiplier), although this did require a vcore of 1.6v.
