Everyone is switching to Q9450, it's time for me to get Q6600. But, Which MB? P35+9R?

[tetete]

Want to get a Q9450 for long

But I want to get a Q6600 for even longer....

Now Q9450 is out, and ppl are selling their Q6600,

it's time for my 939 to retire......

I did a little research, probably Q6600 + P35 + ICH9R is the best shot

Q6600 can get a stock V at 400x8=3.2
P35 can support future CPU upgrade
ICH9R can host my 3 Disk Raid-5 well

Since there are soooo many good P35 board on the second hand market,

which model do u recommend please ?

P35 is the best bang for the buck. P45's are looking good so far though and the P5Q Deluxe would be my choice. If you go P35 then id say get the DFI LP P35 LT.

just my opinion, but I dont touch Biostar.

if you want to find a motherboard deal you need to look here:

any p35 will work well, just make sure your getting a good brand and model. Biostar is crap unless you pay for their high end line which really pales in comparison to gigabyte, asus, msi, etc

if you only want to run 3.2 ghz, why not look for a 965 board?
If you get a p35, i would plan on running at at least 3.4ghz, anything less and you are a pansy. (j/k) welcome to the wonderful world of intel.....

(if you want an aftermarket cooler, check the newegg open box section also.)

thanks for the replys

I'm planing to run on stock V and 400x8 24x7

and I will use after market coolings,,,,

I really do love to OC, I want to try to OC it as high as possible, but that are just for testing, and for fun.....

stable is a consern too, but normally a MB can handle good OC, must be a stable board too.....

BTW,,, I'm looking for a Nice OC Q6600 + MB + 4GB ram combo,

do you have one for sale? :toast:

Asus P5K-E or Deluxe are excellent choices.

[tetete]

P5K-E or Deluxe look good

any one is selling those and Q6600?

I cant see trade fourm yet~~
