Intel adds more Quad-Core CPUs (0 Comments) (link)
 Wednesday, 10-January-2007  17:32:58 (GMT +10) - by Agg

Intel announced yesterday some new quad-core CPUs, the Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.4GHz) for desktop use and the Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processor 3200 series (2.4GHz or 2.13GHz) for single-socket servers. "Today Intel delivers another breakthrough - quad-core technology for anyone's PC," said Intel President and CEO Paul Otellini. "The performance once requiring a supercomputer is now on the desktop, allowing you to do new and amazing things."

ArsTechnica have their thoughts posted. Of course, the Q6600's have been around for a little while now - here's eva2000 having fun with the multi-threaded version of Prime95 on one. The Folding@Home guys are interested too, but the main Intel Hardware discussion thread for these new CPUs is here.
