Well ive been an AMD guy all my life, but I just bought from newegg:

MB ASUS P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe NF4SLI - Retail

CPU INTEL|C2D E6600 2.4G 775 4M R - Retail

MEM 1Gx2|OCZ DII900 OCZ2N9002GK R - Retail

CPU COOLER THERMALRIGHT| ULTRA-120 - Retail

Hows it looking?

My hard drives are SATA Raptors, will I need to reformat them when changing out a mobo, cpu, and ram? Or no...
 
Yes you will need to format them once you change the motherboard. Also OCZs DDR2 ram has been suspect as of late with numerous incompatibility issues with motherboards I hope yours works with your motherboard though.

My OCZ has worked perfectly with the Biostar TForce P965 Deluxe, and my ASUS P5W DH. In fact on the Biostar board, it outperformed the Corsair PC8000UL memory I also had in my posession.
 
Meh, you would know more than I would. I'm just going off what I heard from friends and others and I'm not talking about newegg reviews since a lot of their bad reviews are probably user error.
 
Posting from my new E6600 PC right now. Had it up for about an hour. Haven't OC'd yet, but I'm I'm already VERY happy with how smooth the install went with MCE2005.

Left my Opty 170 Water Rig for thsi puppy. I'm expecting a lot from it. So far, so good!

Good luck!
 
I had to replace 2 bad sticks of OCZ on my core 2 setup, went with corsair and have had no problems, running a Intel 975xbx

I haven't had problems with either, but the OCZ gave me much better overclocking performance than the Corsair PC8000UL memory did.
