    cpu bottleneck for a 4870?

    Wait for Windows 7 imo, but if you end up getting vista, get the 64 bit version, 32 bit is fail

    Overclocking son's XPS 410

    That isn't true at all, you can still overclock if its not an extreme CPU, you just increase the FSB like normal...

    single 7800gt or 2 7600gt's in SLI?

    Test both with game benchmarks? You appear to have both the parts, it doesn't take that much effort to check. Most likely the 2x7600gt's will be faster, but who knows.

    cpu bottleneck for a 4870?

    Your CPU won't be a bottleneck, don't worry about it. You don't need the extra RAM either if you have XP. If you have Vista, get it for sure.

    Q6600+4850-512mb - stutters - what do I need?

    Yea, its not your graphics card nor your CPU, the games just fail. Like the above post said, cap your fps in FC2 that way. You can do that for other games and the problem is fixed as well. As long as your frame rate doesn't drop below the cap, you won't get stutters. Meh, imo, game...

    Summer, destroyer of OC's

    Heh, on my Q9450 i can overclock it to 4.0ghz in the morning when ambient temps are low, but by midday, the system starts getting temps into the upper 70's (><)

    Overclocking son's XPS 410

    XPS's allow overclocking, becauase they're dells "extreme" systems or whatever. I had a Dimension 9100 Dell, it didn't allow overclocking, but im pretty sure the XPS systems do. As to whether or not you can actually overclock it to 3ghz, that depends on the motherboard (i think that all Dell...

    Finally hit 4.0 on c1 q9550!

    Hmm, i've never tweaked the NB GTL, can you explain to me what it does? Or did you just randomly tweak it? Also, definitely try IBT, it's a faster/harder test for your CPU (thus better in my eyes)

    Finally hit 4.0 on c1 q9550!

    Just out of curiousity, what are your bios settings? (GTL/PLL/VTT) I've got a Q9450 and a P5Q-E, so my setup is relatively similar, i can get around 3.8ghz stable

    FSB wall on gigabyte X48 and Q9450

    Post your settings, people can't really help if you they don't know what you have set already. Based on what you've said, i suggest (im not familar with your board, i have a P5Q-E and a Q9450 myself (its stable at 480+ FSB, just temps start getting too high), tweaking your GTL/PLL voltages...
