I am going to buy Core 2 Quad Q6600 but i m a little confused regarding the motherboard.
For me Important things are
1. Low operating temperature... ( i want to buy ASUS P5K.. but its high temperatures keeps me away from it... cuz the system is going to be working in a hot climate)..
2. Reasonable Overclocking... will like to overclock upto 350 Mhz FSB...
3. Good onboard cooling... i have seen MSI Platinum has pretty extra vagent cooling setup but i wander if it works..?
4. High speed LAN... cuz its going to be used in LAN parties.. no need for dual Gigabit..
5. Good onboard Sound... cuz i rarely buy extra sound card.
6. Lastly only DDR2 board.
Remaining extras, are not much of an interest for me but won't mind if they come in the package.
My budgest is around 160...
Currently i have MSI Platium on my list as a top contender... as i said i want ASUS but due to its high operating voltage i m staying away from it... So wot you people recommend..
