I've been a devout AMD geek since '96, but I'd go with the Q6600...That's my next build, great specs. ID: 695286 ·

The only problem with that is that as far as I know, you would have to go with a server grade mobo and cpus, and not too many of them play nicely with OCing... I think the mobo that who? is ocing with may be an Intel board that has not been released yet. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." ID: 695306 ·

Looks like I got a bad motherboard though so I had to RMA it. Replacement is on its way with a scheduled delivery date of January 2 - same day I get back from visiting my brother for Christmas.
