I am a heavy gamer and love quality music on my computer. I am getting a last gen video card now and saving the $500 for next gen G92 awesomeness I think the 7600 will suffice until then
My Budget is around $2000 but what I dont spend I will save for future upgrades Need a good suggestion for Motherboard and Power Supply
 
Yeah it's nice, it'll last you a good 3-5 years. I've wasted money that I shouldn't have wasted too.
 
Nah nah, it works, it just doesn't run everything. I spent $2000 on this computer. It's less than $500 worth garbage now.

Agreed with maroon. Along with the Q6600, I would suggest the Tuniq. This will do a better job cooling the quad core, than the CNPS9700.

I would suggest you change the RAM set to the Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 because, for the price, you can't beat it's performance.

Why not replace that Raptor, with another WD 750GB.....because the WD 750GB hard drives, are as fast as the Raptor. You'll get a ton of extra space.

For the power supply, I would suggest the PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610W. It can power any system, easily.
...You can get it cheaper, at ZipZoomFly.com:
PC POWER and COOLING EPS12V S61EPS Power Supply Retail at ZipZoomfly
 
yeah maroon is spot on with that q6600 instead of wasting ur money on a e6850.

mobo: ds3r p35 for sure

ram: gskill hz ddr800 2gb
