    Bandwidth vs. Cas Latency

    even for nforce on 680is, bandwidth is more important. 5-5-5-15 1066 runs faster than 4-4-4-12 800

    Voltage reader

    they should. if not just set it manually to what you want. once it's set ram voltage tends to be pretty reliable.

    cooling advice intake vs. exhaust

    if nosie is a concern, AVOID 80mm fan cases. try an antec p180 or 900 that use 120mm+ fans. those things will run quiet.

    Considering going water

    noise and temps are the reasons to go with water vs air. that and you ahve to be pretty good with cable management. If u ahve anything smaller than a large mid-tower case, i'd say don't go with with water. your case is already gonna be so full of wires that u won't have room to swish hoses...

    E6600 CPU Temp

    better yes, good, no. if everything seems to be right and it still that high it's time to invest 50 bucks into a new hsf. better to spend 50 on a new hsf than 300+ when ur c2d fries.
