    triple monitor setup 25" or 27" (1440p)

    What would be more comfortable triple monitor setup for graphic work (3d, 2d - 3dsmax, photoshop, zbrush etc) I'm thinking about 25 inch (dell 2515h) or 27 (dell 2715h, 2717d). I'm not sure if 27 isn't going to be a bit harsh on head movement and maybe it's better to go after smaller ppi and...

Ninja is already with fan so if passive won't be enought I could also use it. What about SI-128. WHat...

    is 800Mhz memory future proof over 533?

    but I read that fsb anyway can't go faster so memory will run not 1:1 and it's better to run 1:1 right?

    is 800Mhz memory future proof over 533?

    So we know that if we're not OCing the highest memory we can use with intel conroe system is 533. All top shelf mobos are have in specs 800Mhz memory. So it's just information for OC maniacs and people who don't OC should even look at this info right? BUt my question is. Is it possible that in...

    OC'ed E6700 lifespan longer than E6600?

    I never was to OC but from what I see maybe it's time to change my mind . Anyway my question is. Do you think that E6700 because it has higher clock, he's lifespan when OC'ing might be longer that OC'ed E6600?

    E6700 worst quality than E6600?

    Is it true that the heatspreader ontop of the core is slightly concave on the E6700, the hsf isn't matting 100% flush? And because of that E6700 is 10C hotter than E6600? I wanted to get 6700 but now I'm starting to wonder.
