The DQ6 was a good board IIRC... Have you considered a G0 step quad? They are generally better overclockers with a lower power consumption...
Main rig:
CPU: I7 920C0 @ 3.6Ghz (180*20)
Mobo: DFI UT X58 T3eH8
RAM: 12GB OCZ DDR3-1600 Platinum
GPU/LCD: GeForce GTX280 + GeForce 8600GTS (Quad LCDs)
Intel X25-M G2 80GB, 12TB storage
PSU/Case: Corsair AX850, Silverstone TJ07
sorry typo this is a G0 95w version

Looks like you are set, those Geils D9 or Promos? While you'll only need ~DDR2-977 for 4.4GHz with that Q6600, it's always nice to run with some D9The DQ-6 looks like a decent X38 board, I've had great luck with high clocking Gigabyte boards, haven't had a dude yet, so far 2 965 DS3's that hit 500FSB on a Conroe. Seems like P35/X38 all hit 500FSB consistently though so I don't think you can get a "bad" board.
they are claimed to be d9's but it a luck thing any deffo D9's products out there!!!
only 20 mins till order quick fire replys please
Be aware of the D9 ram, you'll kill it if you run anything over 2.2v 24/7.
EDIT: that means you'll have to run high fsb and higher volts if you want to reach 4.4

Crucial Ballstix and Tracers DDR800 + > are deffo D9's
Micron owns Crucial if im not mistaken. Or is it the otherway around.
Nadeshiko: i7 990 12GB DDR3 eVGA Classified *In Testing... Jealous?*
Miyuki: W3580 6GB DDR3 P6T-Dlx
Lind: Dual Gainestown 3.07
Sammy: Dual Yonah Sossoman cheerleader. *Sammy-> Lind.*
Its my fault.. and no im not sorry about it either.[12:37] skinnee: quit helping me procrastinate block reviews, you asshat. :p
[12:38] Naekuh: i love watching u get the firing squad on XS
good news all arrived and its doing 3.6 at stock volts on default intel cooler
Say what? Huh?! That's amazing.
Under load?
All the G0 quads I've run into, but one, need 1.35 to 1.4 to go to 3.6 .
So, what RAM did you go with?
