If one were to come across a Q6600 ES, would it be worth keeping? It is my understanding that all Q6600's ES's are B3 steppings, hypothetically wouldn't it be better to just get a G0 Q6600? I'm asking in regards to overclocking. Anyways advice on this situation would be appreciated.
 
It would be nice, if said ES chip was unlocked. Then you could overclock it a little easier. But other than that, I'd probably rather a G0 just b/c they generally OC so much better.

I've personally seen an ES Q6600 that was listed as B2 stepping under CPUZ.
