Best build for the price, enjoy it ;)
 
oh and one more thing im not dissing it or anything but i was just wandering whats so good about the GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3R motherboard
 
It allows you to overclock very well. With a Q6600 G0 you should be able to get a minimum of about 3.2 GHz. It is also pretty future proof with 1333 MHz FSB support.
 
yeh i got a q6600 now but its on my dads pc and i think it runs hotter than it should be it runs at 45c with a thermalright 120 extreme with a syth-flex fan blowing out air into my exhaust fan on my thermaltake armor
