Are you going to OC that bad daddy? You'd be nuts not to. Right now I'm somewhat leaning towards this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813121059 because I'm not going ATI (as of right now) nor do I want SLI. Make sure you buy a retail boxed Intel CPU, you get a pretty decent fan/heatsink with it and also a 3 year warranty, you will get neither with an OEM/non-retail version. Also, consider going with a 6600 Conroe instead of the 6400, it comes with 4mb L2 cache and OC's like a monster, for $40 more. Given everything I've been reading, you should easily be able to OC a 6600 up to 3.0ghz rock solid stable on stock cooling safely. Getting a new rig myself in a month or two, until then I'll just have to be jealous. Best of luck!
