Everything looks nice but you should consider on getting a Q9450 its like an extra £50, so get that instead of Q6600. Just a thought that's all, i found a good price for you on scan click on link below: Q9450 Your mobo does support the next gen 45nm CPU so no worries there
Thanks for the reply. Yeh will check out the Q9450. My main concern was mobo, but after more research seem v good so thats great - and as you said it will support future gen CPU's which is a huge plus. thnx
