Many years ago, when the first quad core CPU’s hit the market, I had a friend working in Intel. I got myself a Q6600 quad core for pennies on the euro and promptly installed Gentoo. Oh how I made that CPU work for the pennies I paid for it.
Honestly it was the only thing at the time to tax a quad core. Most games were not well optimised for 4 cores and more or less nothing else was anything but single threaded.
