agreed Karl
nice spec. thinking myself of getting the XFX 790i ultra mobo, was looking at it the other day, and go for a QC intel chip and overclock it, cant remember the highest CPU it takes, as im thinking of getting the high end cpu and overclocking that, maybe watercooling too.
nice spec though!

Cheers mate, total so far is around £1800 and before anyone says i could build that for £1799.99 F**K off lol, i ordered 2 8800gt alpha dogs used them for about an hour, stuck a 8800gtx in, thought....i need another one of these got one and now im thinking 2x 9800gx2
anyone wanting hardly used graphics cards cheap at my expense feel free to dry bum me for them lol.
answer to a previous question....3GB ram what OS, i got vista 64bit
if anyone is thinking of overclocking their cpu with the xfx 790i mobo, do some research first as most aftermarket cpu coolers wont fit inside the mobo heat sinks

The game I play Clockspeed matters,
my 9600GT is perfectly adequate it seems,
I just need more speed.
ZOOOP.
would be nice to get a decent case and quality cooling system, as Ive seen 4+ GHz out of a Q6600.

you wont see 4+ ghz for very long lol, 3.2Ghz is about the most you will get without going over the top.

my mums q6600 in my watercooled pc will do 3.6... they just knock some heat out which needs to be cooled...

Just buy a crossfire compatible mobo, or one that supports both.
