I chose the Q6600 G0 when I upgraded to quad core because it was the best OC'er out there at the time (with the exception of the extreme series money pit chips), I'm running 3.1Ghz at 1.152V so I could easily hit 4.0Ghz with this processor if my motherboard wasn't so gay.Originally Posted by Chozenzzz

Thats a nice q6600, you might be able to get a record out of it. Just put that bish on a benchtable, grab some 120mm fans, and maybe a house fan, and get CPU-z running and start getting 4.5+Ghz. q6600's can sometimes do 4.8Ghz well i dont know the records but ive seen a guy on overclock.net that has a verification at 4.6ish Ghz with a q6600I chose the Q6600 G0 when I upgraded to quad core because it was the best OC'er out there at the time (with the exception of the extreme series money pit chips), I'm running 3.1Ghz at 1.152V so I could easily hit 4.0Ghz with this processor if my motherboard wasn't so gay.

You could go down another 780i-790i ultra from Zotac on newegg thats like 100 bucks.
Or get a Ep45-ud3p motherboard,(ive done 2190FSB) and clock that q6600 to its knee's and maybe you can take a gamble and hack sli like i did ;D.
My q9550 does 0.992 volts for 3.0Ghz 24/7 stability. Pretty impressed with my voltage scaling.
Nice yoko, i remember you from freelancers server, didnt know you had the same power supply i got. Tx750's are nice power supply, and i get spoiled after i see a carrying bag for it
We should make a Corsair PSU Club on mod.net to

I fixed it for him by changing them to thumbs.
I'm satisfied with the performance I'm getting out of this machine as is, so I'll wait until the next gen Intel socket processors come out in a year or two before I upgrade.Thats a nice q6600, you might be able to get a record out of it.

Edit - Posting my latest PC pics:
Cut the "honeycomb" mesh out of the front of my case for better/quieter airflow:

Interior with my two 500GB hard drives moved into the iCage (two new 1TB drives are in the normal HDD area):

Is the cable management any bad after putting in the new drives? Or is it still nice and slim?
It's not horrible but there are lots of cables visible now because of the way I had to replace the "2xMolex modular cable" with a "4xMolex/1xFloppy modular cable" so I could connect a "1xMolex - 2xSATA cable adapter" and plug in the iCage fan.
I'll get in there and fix it eventually.
