Well I finally pushed the button and ordered my new setup. Here are the details:
From Mwave:
INTEL CORE 2 QUAD Q6600 2.4
ABIT IP35-E
MSI RX1550-TD128EH Radeon X1550 (needed a cheap vid card)
ARCTIC SILVER 5 PREMIUM SILVER THERMAL COMPOUND
From provantage.com
4 x 1GB PC2-5300 DDR2-667 DIMM (about $10-15 after rebate!)
I decided to wait on the aftermarket CPU heatsink/fan. I want to see if the above will be stable at 3.0ghz with stock cooler. I can't wait to get the parts in and build!
Thanks for all the suggestions guys.
