It better if you can go 45nm quad since it run cooler and better than q6600.
Cooling you cant go wrong with TRUE , OCZ vandetta or Xigmatek.
If you going 4gig RAM go for 4gb ddr1000 or ddr1066 corsair or g.skill. But seems like any 4gb with powerchip doing fine on this board.
My Q6600 capped around 3.90-3.96 stable but I push it a little bit. Sry a little bit blurry when I resizing it.
500x8 and 515x7

pierrandre nice clock but it very hot man. I hope you didnt cook anything.
Did you put any fans on the NB because it reaching 97°c? You can boil some eggs.
Linpack is brutal with quad especially if you clock it high and pumping some vcore.
I thought the "system temp" in ET6 was not specifically the NB chip but was some general motherboard temp, is that not correct?
