Okay, I know that the board has a lot of cpu square offs, but how about the E6850 or the QX6700. I know that the 6700 is almost double the money, but is it worth that extra coin. If it is, then that is what I am doing. Trying to avoid buying another cpu over the next year or longer. I am going to be dual booting XP and Vista Ultimate, eventually just moving to Vista.
