Hey everyone, long time AMD user here. I've finally made the decision to switch over and build a C2D system. I plan to use the system for mostly gaming. The system in my signature is my current build and I'll be using some parts from that machine, notably the power supply. Here's the base parts I've come up with:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
BFG GeForce 8800GTS 640MB
ASUS P5K3 DELUXE
Patriot eXtreme Performance 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) 5-5-5-9
I'd like to overclock the system slightly, over 3ghz at least. My budget is approximately $1,000-$1,100. Lastly, should I get a new P35 motherboard or the established P965. I look forward to seeing what it's like on the Intel side.
