Gonna take a lot of volts to get the new Q6600's to 4ghz. If any board can do it, that UD3 can. You might look into the Q9550 if you can afford the extra 80$. Guy's are hitting 4.0 on air with the ones that have been shipping lately so i could see 4.5 on water. Good luck bro, let us know how it goes and post some pics. (of your computer)

Yeah unless you get the G0 stepping or wtf it is the Q6600 is gonna have issues after 3.2ghz. I feel like value wise DDR1066 is a waste of dough. opinion, not fact. The antec 1200 is loud. Coolermaster has some pretty amazing cases though. I want a centurion 590 so bad it hurts.

well, i AM getting g0 stepping, and i only will go to 4.0 gh/z if the future games require it, but for now ill stick with most likely 3.2 gh/z or 3.0...

 

btw, good point, ill look into the q9550...

BTW terry, I could. Do I have $100? Nope. But when your family fully owns a company that produces computer hardware, it's not tough to get your hands on pricey stuff. The dual CPU 2GHz processor that I have now, I managed to get for $4. :D

 

Newegg has it for 74.99

And the Gforce 8400 GS was $10 or 15$.

rofl your comp isnt best. q6600 is a good processor can overclock to 3ghz right out of the box with air cooling. a beast machine would have the new i7 920 proc 12 gigs ddr3 triple channel, 2 295 videocards and 1 tesla proc just a fyi

That's cool, but why bring it up? It's almost as if you're trying to show off or something.

"Look at me, my family owns a computer company, look at all the awesome sweet deals that I get that you don't."

 

At least, that what it seems like to me.

 

Sometimes I'll bring it up to friends on forums and stuff, a lot of my friends online have bought from me.
