Which CPU would you choose for a gaming PC, the Q6600 or the E6850?
For the chipset, would you go with the P35 Express or nForce 600i?
Why?

For gaming, I'd go E6850. More speed per core is almost universally better than
more cores for current games. I anticipate that will change, but it'll remain
that way for a while.
Hands down, P35 Express, unless you just absolutely need SLI. The 680i has a
fantastic feature set, but I've just
Hi,
I need to get a couple of GFX cards so don't want to spend more than
$200 each what's the best gaming card in this price? I would prefer
Nvidia but I'm open to all suggestions.
What's the best WWW site for reviews now a days? I have been out of the
loop far too long.
Many thanks,
Gary
P35 is the only way to go. It has ICH9 which is the fastest southbridge to
date. In addition to DDR3 support, it's memory controller has been tweaked
to surpass the performance of older chipsets even when using DDR2.
SLI is still immeasurably stupid. 8800 GTX's and Ultras are cheaper now and

Yeah I'd rather run one video card. Esp, where one card can ruin two
in SLI.
So looks like so far we have:
P35 Express chipset board
E6850 (3.0GHz) dual-core
DDR3 Memory
8800 GTX or Ultra nVidia card
Anyone make a call on what brand I would pursue for P35 chipset?
I'm fond of
AGP? PCI-X (I think)? Etc.

Do newer camera phones use a USB plug. Do they all just plug into a

I want to back up my retail audio CDs. I don't want to rip them into

SLI is pointless to consider unless you have money to burn (better to
get a Roth IRA IMHO). A 550 watt PSU with greater than 80% efficiency
would do just fine for what you want. Apparently my fellow listers
haven't been reading too much about P35 and DDR2/DDR3 support. P35 is an

ATI X1950 Pro XT's from Sapphire, VisionTek,
PowerColor, etc... get my vote on
either bus. I am sure the similar spec Nvidia's are
the same ~$200.
