The Quad extreme (QX6700, QX6800, QX6850) will, the normal Extreme (X6800, X6900) won't. Basically if you want a quad core, look for the Q.

Ok, I read this somewhere but I cant remember, so bare with me. I heard that a Core 2 Quad is just 2 duel core processors compacted into 1 cpu, while a Core 2 Exteme (QX____) is a "real" quad core, which is 4 seperate cores. Btw, that's the one that costs $1000USD, while the Core 2 quad only costs 279 I think.
