Core 2 Duo E6600 Batch L632B415
2GB of
this stuff ($265 deal =)
Bad Axe 2 mobo - goin for stability, and if I understood it correctly I shouldnt need the really high FSB speeds because of the E6600
Tuniq tower - ya, overkill, but I'm a sucker for huge CPU HSF's =)
eVGA 8800 GTS
Case - Antec P180
Raptor 74gb
700w power supply
So I'm mainly going for a relativly quiet, stable system but I do want to push as much out of the CPU as I can w/ the equipment I have...What do you guys estimate I should be able to get? I was thinking about getting the antec nine hundred case but decided against it, as the overclocking is more of a hobby than the main purpose of the system...that and the huge fans/blue lights kinda turned me off. I've actually worked w/ a P180 before and enjoyed the final product, even if the cable managment was a pain in the ass
