Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 (a good choice for heavy multitasking?) and since you recommended that I dont need to OC, would it still be beneficial if I got a aftermarket cpu cooler? Motherboard: PQ5-Deluxe? (Saw the reviews on it plus it only has 1 PCE-slot since I will just be using 1...

ASUS P5N72-T Premium
