The difference 600mhz can make...

So, in my boredom today, I put my q6600 back to stock (2.4ghz) to compare the Cinebench score to my usual 3ghz.

 

This was the result: post-192956-0-23209500-1433795565.png

 

I always overclocked for the want to go fast (just like turboing a car) but I really didn't know it made that much of a difference. 

CPU: INTEL Core i7 4790k @ 4.7Ghz - Cooling: NZXT Kraken X61 - Mobo: Gigabyte Z97X SLI - RAM: 16GB G.Skill Ares 2400mhz - GPU: AMD Sapphire Nitro R9 Fury 4G - Case: Phanteks P350X - PSU: EVGA 750GQ - Storage: WD Black 1TB - Fans: 2x Noctua NF-P14s (Push) / 2x Corsair AF140 (Pull) / 3x Corsair AF120 (Exhaust) - Keyboard: Corsair K70 Cherry MX Red - Mouse: Razer Deathadder Chroma

Bit of an AMD fan I suppose. I don't bias my replies to anything however, I just prefer AMD and their products. Buy whatever the H*CK you want.

A bigger difference would be 4.0ghz...

AMD Phenom II B55 Quad / unlocked dual core 4.3ghz CB R15 = CB 422
