E6600 build, come share your suggestions with me.
So, it's time to finally give up my old Athlon and get meself a 'dirty' intel processor :undecided
Got my mind set on the following, but would like any better suggestions people might wish to share?
Currently buying:
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E6600 Dual Core Processor (2.40GHz,4MB Cache,1066MHz)
Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-8500C5 TwinX (2x1GB) 1066MHZ FSB
2 x 250 Gb Western Digital WD2500KS Caviar SE16, SATA300, 7200 rpm, 16MB Cache, 8.9 ms, NCQ (for the RAIDing thereof)
Where I'm stuck is 'cos I prefer ATI to nVidia, so I've got 2 boards in mind:
ASUS P5N32SLI SE Deluxe NF4 SLI (for Nvidia)
or
MSI 975X Platinum PowerUp Edition (for ATI)
I'd appreciate any suggestions as to alternative boards that might better those above, and also what graphic cards, for less than £250, you might recommend.
Any thoughts or advice?
Thanks
