I knew the layout, and I didn't care, after reports of damn good overclocks, with a D 805 up for 4.7 GHz or so..... that's some damn good power regulation.

Then u can't really afford a Core 2 Duo, stick a D 805 in and wait till u can afford a Core 2...

a good P965 mobo, like the Gigabyte DS-3, Abit AB9 Pro, etc.

x1900xt if u can go up, 7900GT (512?)

that one you linked is slow as hell...

wait and save up some money to get a 965 board so you can upgrade to Core 2 Duo if you need

holy CRAP long post.... i'd seriously try OC'ing the CPU and seeing how much of an effect that has....

only thing that gives me doubts on that build would be the PSU running an overclocked 7900GT or x1900xt...

do the voltmods on the 7900 GT void the eVGA warranty?

THANK GOD! Personally, I can't wait much longer. My AGP 4x P4 2.8 GHz Vanilla 6600 machine isn't cutting it, and i'm waitin for my first build... If it launched in september, then i wouldn't be able to build in summer.

I'm building my first build in Late July/August, with an E6600 and a 7900 GT... as a question, is it crazy for me to be thinking about volt-modding my 7900 GT if this is my first build? (i wouldn't volt-mod right away, but sometime in the near future...)

yeah, saying that conroe is only hype is ridiculous. Several independent people have gotten ES's and tested them.

It's for the 1k series to do either Physics processing or sound processing.

Well, you have to consider the fact that every hacker in the world doesn't target Linux or OSX, they target Windows. That's why so many holes are opened. I don't think OSX could begin to hold up to the pressure that hackers put on Windows. I don't know about Linux though.
