Some of the games I have seen requires atleast 3.0Ghz as a minimum requirement for a P4 processor, can a C2D E6600 can run those games without OCing it?

No these games will even run on a e6300.splinter cell double agent runs on my athlon xp 2400+ cpu while it requires a 3.0ghz cpu.It's the performance that matters not the cpu frequency.

Clock speed isnt the only factor that matters in gaming...
Just get a good GPU + 1-2Gb ram + a dual core proccy..

It runs as smooth as silk on E6300 as Harvik said... all u wanna have is atleast 1 GB of DDR2 RAM for ultimate gaming.. And an GPU from nVidia..
