road-runner Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 (edited) I cant find a 6850... Switched out the old board for the<a href="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16813128323" target="_blank"> GA-695P-DQ6</a> I would get the P35 DQ6 if you going P35 which according to what I have read are faster than the 965 chipset. If your going 965 then that is fine. The P35 will have you ready for 45nm chips and is 1333 FSB ready I am not sure if the 965 DQ6 has 1333 FSB support. It may with a bios update. Edit: Yes they fixed that with a bios update Version 3.3 only Edited July 22, 2007 by road-runner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotdamojo06 Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 GA-P35-DQ6 Thats the board I'm going to get. However the CPU is still a mystery... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendellrt Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 E6850, I'm tellin' ya! For the same price as the E6600, which may be phased out anyway, it seems like an easy choice to me. Of course, we don't know how they will perform yet, either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotdamojo06 Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 I would get the E6850 for sure, however I cannot find one online at Newegg.com nor anywhere else. All pulls up is benchmarks of the chip and discussions on other boards about it. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 If you get a E6x50 series be sure that board is revision 3.3 or it will not support 1333 FSB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotdamojo06 Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 If I were not to wait until the E6850 launches, would you suggest the E6600,E6420, or the E6400? I just ordered everything, I decided on the E6600 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeble Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 Alright I will check that stuff out later when I wake up, its now time for some sleep...thanks for the help Bleeble and everyone else CPU Cooler - Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme - $54.99 HDD - WD Caviar SE16 WD3200AAKS 320GB - $74.99 With the Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme, what size fan can fit on it? Is there enough room on the opposite side for a secondary fan? Does anyone have one? It fits a 120mm fan and there is definitely enough room on the other side for a second one. I have the Ultra-120 (same thing with fewer heatpipes) and it's not nearly as big as the Tuniq Tower. You'll just have to find a way to secure the second 120. I would suggest one or two of the Yate Loon fans from here, specifically the D12SM or D12SH. And as everyone else has been saying, quadcore is a waste of money. Get the E6850. Failing that, the E6600 is a good choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 E6850s you will have to check and see who has it in stock. NewEgg always seems to be late on getting new cpus posted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeble Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 http://www.directron.com/bx80557e6850.html <----- Good Company! I'll second that. Directron is a good company, even if their website sucks. In fact, that's where I got my CM Stacker for $75. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
