Software Windows Server 2003 R2 as a Workstation now migrated to W10 with regrets.
... and for silent desktops. I would gladly swap my Q6600 for one of these EXCEPT for the 1333FSB. I want 800 or 1066 FSB to allow for easy OC, esp. my "older" s775/AGP i865 based systems that have a FSB300 (1200) max limit.

WAIT! WTF is that? 5MB and 4MB cache? Ach... meh!

I note these versions are Qxxxxs. "S" for Sh1t?
