ya p5b rm100 more expensive then DS3,last time bought for my frewn about rm620..

DUde you NEED to show me a screen shot of you running oblivion mate! hahah monster rig... very similiar to what i'm trying to build...

nice rigs man....
why dont u OC abit ur CPU n GC, as long as dont increase d voltage, i think its quite safe to run it 24/7. Stock HSF for ur E6600 should be suffice if u dont plan to kow2 OC it. Mine running 305 x 9 with default voltage 24/7 n using stock HSF aso...max temp when full load aso still low, around 60C. at least w the OC u can get higher FRPs in gaming.

why dont u get a gc that can enable HDR n AA at the same time, then ur Oblivion

push up to full detail..see how it goes..let us know too

60C is the temp of my OCed E6300 at 3GHz though

good for u....mayb extra heat fr improper airflow inside ma casing (& chapalang case fans) n fr my OC 1900XTX card.

which 1 better DS3 or P5B? interm od price to performance ratio....

Should be the DS3 is better in terms of performance and price ratio.

guys got simple question here for expert....

i dont have any budget so is it worth it if i buy core 2 duo E6700??

and is the deferent so much for gaming used and some multimedia used...??

GOSH!!! wat a rich man.. btw very very very nice rig man... better save money now & setup kinda rig by end of this year.... Erm... BTW.. wat the best mobo for C2D wif the budget around 500.. for oc maaa..

im not rich... just for me to used...

end of this year?? is the price are droping??

I can run Oblivion, but I think need something to benchmark the FPS. Any software to recommend? I was thinking of FRAPS.

i guess fraps would be ok. or u can search around in guru3d.com. there are game demos that can do fps counts.

I think the price will be fix till end of the year.Maybe the price will drop a little bit but the chances is a bit low.Wait until the next proc comes out then there will be price adjustment on the conroe core.

the only one thing...
why not use 19" lcd>../?

Hey, anyone try out ASUS P5B Deluxe Wifi version?
Is it have any RAM compatibility problem as reported on net?

I'm going to buy it within the coming 2 to 3 weeks.
Anyone using it please share your xp.

TQ

If it's the regular P5B..then skip it. It's already discontinued. Wait for the P5B-E to arrive. It should retail about the same price as the old vanila version.

In around November or so, there'll be a new revision for the 965 chipset (C2) and so far it seems that 500+...to even 600 is achievable.

E6300 --> Cheapest possible so that's the value
E6400 --> The 8x multiplier is pretty useful since average 3.2Ghz is not an issue paired with DDR2 800's... 8x400...no problem...no sweat
E6600 --> Entry level 4MB...basically the price premium is for the extra cache/performance.
E6700 --> Tarak paham why need E6700 since the E6600's 9x is more than enough to run 1:1... 9x400 --> 3.6Ghz
X6800 --> Unlocked multi's so there's the value there.

Stick to those ram sticks or chips that's listed on Asus QVL and you shouldn't have a problem.

So far i have E6400 + DS3 no probs at all

17" at resolutions of 1280X1024 is good enough for me. I game more than movies, so it should be sufficient. I have my eyes on HDTVs though, but gonna get a house first...
