Review on Ultimate Performance: Intel Core i7-2600 Quad-Core Processor with 8MB Cache and 3.4GHz Speed by Kichiro ᠌

The processor is incredible. It is true that it is too powerful for many games as well as for daily work. Multi-threading is good, and 8 threads are better than 4 even though they are not full, but 4 cores work much more effectively with applications that understand. I am very happy that HT is present. As I frequently use Photoshop, all operations involving 18 megapixel photographs are completed instantly. Encoding video happens quickly. Encoding in full HD is fun. Many people appreciate the built-in video core, which runs in an overclocked condition and doesn't get hotter than 59 degrees with a cooler for 600R.
