lucky bastard! what speakers do u have?

[Beppe]

i have the logitech Z-5500's i love them

[ripken204]

thats going to sound great with the auzentech surround sound from any source thru toslink

[ringfinger]

Wow... an E6600... I sure would love to have one! Have fun with your new rig

[Beppe]

o they doo.. and the bass forget it.. i m next door to my moms room and all the $hit fell out of the closet shelf

yea i m glad i got my hands on a E6600 but i was alil disappointed with the inflated prices but i dont care i want one lol

i will post some pics up when completed

[ringfinger]

Please do! Are you planning on OC'ing it at all? Or just get used to the new raw power first?

[Beppe]

LOL i hope theres a huge diff without overclocking.. i never really tried or got into the whole overclocking scene.. although i used to have alot of dangerden water cooling stuff.. really nice rig b4 this. but i got so tired of the watercooling scene when something goes wrong its a headache to constantly work over tubes and emptying the water and filling and bleeding.. i had enough so i went with the oversized heat sinks silent approach.. and now with the conroes i dont have too worry about heat anymore and quietness. but who knows maybe i will try to overclock we'll see wut happens i just hope everything works 1st! never kno

[ringfinger]

I hear ya, I would most def burn it in for a month at least before attempting to OC. Thats just my preference. I sure wish I had waited another 10 months to build my computer!! May be investing in a new MB and a Conroe myself!

[Beppe]

sell ur stuff and build nother LOL.. i cant tell u how many times i upgraded in the past few months up and down with the crap

[ringfinger]

I was thinking of doing just that, but I'm not sure where to sell it for the best price? eBay? Friends? Somewhere else? If I could just make back not even half I would go for a 975 board and the E6600.

[Beppe]

well go to ebay.. do a search for ur hardware see wut the round about price there going for so u know how to price them.. bc if its too high, then everyone elses. they wont buy.. or u can pribe them with buy it nows lol like i do i offer lil extra good for buy it now onlys and i catch them like flies lol.... alot of the time since i was a college student we always get updated software for school.. happens to xp pro was one of them but its corp lol... pretty cool for going to college i think.. like the whole school has this volume licenced cd lol everyone gets a copy
