This thread needs input from YOU
1. suggestion on witch MB i should get.
2. overclock results/availability in Sweden/and other necessary info
__________________________________________________ ___________________________

After reading hundreds of threads about C2D motherboards I'm more undecided than ever.

I'm going with the E6600 and the cheapest 6400 ram i can find (cause price>k*performance^3 ) and single 3d-card at the moment.

Overclocking with air and hoping for >400fsb maybe some V-modding etc.

As of now most MB:s in Sweden are >2000kr=220€=275$=150£
And very sparse so I thought i would list some and we will together help me and others to decide not only Swedes ofcorse.

The List
(I will fill in more info when i have the time and when YOU start posting info, please help and always be sceptical when vendors list things as arriving:rolleyes:)

By the way Datorhandel.com has allot of C2D MB:s listed and the say they will receive 1200 E6600 @ 2006-08-07 and they have low prices. BUT they have a bad reputation (I have not bought anything there so i don't know anything fore sure) so if anyone knows anything about this please share it with us. If i lived near their physical store i wouldn't hesitate.



Work in progress
