Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I was going to post my IP35 results, but now i'm just in on the Pepsiennis drama :D

The features like CMOS cleanage and placement of SATA ports, and low profile heatpipe is winning me over.

P5K is my close second choice.

Q6600 seems a little cheaper.
Multiplier is the same. If I was going for a multi i'd go with QX6700, then again I don't think i'll be able to afford that right now (only in june).
Server processors don't usually have benches out. If you look at the specs they're identical, I just see some...
My choice is pretty simple either buy Xeon 3220 today or within a week (before they're sold out) or buy Q6600 with my P35 (will probably go with Gigabyte DQ6) mobo sometime in the beginning of June. The problem is that either way i'll be OC'ing the processor and from what I know Xeon 3220 OC...
