I can tell you which would be the fastest CPUs of the lot.

Q6600
E8400
E7500

Though the bus speed on the E7500 is actually lower than stuff like the E6750, which is bad in some ways.

Not gonna spend any time trying to figure out which boards can host those CPUs, though. You should be able to find some compatibility lists somewhere.

GIGABYTE GA-G31M-S2L
GIGABYTE GA EP-43UD3L
These are your best boards. I would put the Q6600 in the P35, or possibly the EP-43, depending on which one has the better / higher-spec VRMs.

The other board, use for the E8400, and put the E7500 into the G31M board (bonus, use the iGPU).

are you sure this is are the best boards ?
for example the chipset on the
GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS4
and
GIGABYTE GA-G31M-S2L

is better than the
GIGABYTE GA EP-43UD3L ? or the INTEL DG41TY ?

and i think that E6750 is better that the e7500 fix me if i wrong

@ripo66

E6750 has more L2 and faster FSB speed, but E7500 has a higher clock. I would only use the E6750 if you were prepared to overclock it to ~3 GHz to make up for the clockspeed deficit. You can probably do that at stock volts though.
