Have fun putting in the cooling fan. THe instructions that come with the processor are horrible.

it'* not that bad, I've put on hundreds of 775 heat sinks

hundreds?

Mines a Q6600 wonder if that ones much better?

too bad that most apps/games cant fully take advantage of multiple CPU threads.

For the average user, you are generally better off for home/gaming use in getting the fastest dual core processor with the most cache rather than a quad core at this point.

Why not to get a quad core processor:

I work in the components department of an electronics store, I've had to test a lot of motherboards and processors in my 3 years there

I got it for the simple fact that I only had to pay $250 for the board, processor and vista

Where? thats a good $600+ worth of stuff there.

Nice score!
Whacha gonna do with the intel bd?
