    Best overclocking RAM for these parts...?

    With a Q6600 CPU, Gigabyte P35-DS3 motherboard, and Tuniq Tower for cooling, what RAM do you recommend for the best overclock. Budget of about $160AU, maybe more if you can convince me of the benefits. (I hear lots of good things about Crucial Ballistix RAM, but I'm in Aus which makes it hard...

    Difference between GIGABYTE boards?

    GA-P35-S3 - The most basic. GA-P35-DS3 - Same as above but "Ultra Durable". GA-P35-DS3R - "Ultra Durable" and ICH9R. GA-P35C-DS3R - "Ultra Durable", ICH9R, and both DDR2 and DDR3 slots. GA-P35-DS3P - An extra PCI-e slot. GA-P35-DS4 - Better cooling. GA-P35T-DS4 - Better cooling and only...

    The Coolermaster iGreen 500W has 33A on the combined +12V rails, which is plenty for an 8800GTS and a moderately overclocked Q6600. Already have another 320GB HD. Already have. Don't need. More than 2 x 1GB at the moment is just unnecessary for a gaming rig. Didn't think these boards...

    Most Useless Cooling Device Ever

    Yeah, took me also a bit to figure out what it was for. It'd just push air into the bottom of your CD-ROM and on top of your hard disk, wouldn't do anything for airflow. It would be more effective to put a removable tray in its place and fill it with ice cubes every 30mins.

    Does anyone know of any benefits of the Asus P5K over the Gigabyte P35-DS3, there's only a $13AU difference from where I'm buying. The RAM, is it worth getting some 800Mhz instead and trying to push the CPU a bit higher? Or should I just see if it's stable at 9 x 333 with 667Mhz RAM, then...

    Jesus, settle down, alright it voids the warranty, I don't care if it does, you acting like I'm going to be committing a crime by overclocking it. Regardless of the warranty, the stock fan is not an overclocking tool.

    I only plan on running the RAM at it's listed speeds of 667Mhz 5-5-5-15, I can't see the point of 800Mhz RAM unless I was going to push over 3.0Ghz, and even then I can just raise the multiplier so the RAM stays 667Mhz. Bill_Bright, using that fan doesn't void the warranty, and when they talk...

    Best board for Q6600?

    With no intention to overclock, or to upgrade in the next 2yrs, would the P35 boards be the best choice for a Q6600? Budget of around $250AU.
