Hi all.
I want to buy the Q6600.
Im novice so just 2 questions:
1) 6400(800Mhz) ram is ok? I wont overclock.
2) Can you think of a good cheap mobo for that? I dont care for 2 vga.
Im thinking for a 2900XT (is that ok for its price?)

Thank you :)

2_2900XT is fine but it consumes more power than its rival 8800gts640 also its more hotter than 8800gts , for motherboard go for ASUS P5K , GIGABYTE P35 DS3R or GIGABYTE P35 DS3L
