yeah kinda pointless thread but..will update with pics once i recieve parts
 
Asus P5K is better then the newer Gigabyte GA-P35-DQ6. I can imagine it being better as the one you chose as well (and the FSB wall of this motherboard is higher then 510mhz... Which will give you a 3Ghz Q6600 when you set the multiplier at 6...)
 
The asus one is 50 dollars more. I didnt see a 50 dollar improvement over the gigabyte plus look at the reviews on each board on newegg and sharkeyextreme.

This was a budget build for the best possible stuff for least amount of money.

I think i accomplished it.

Plus down the road i can upgrade the mobo and i am only out 80 bucks.
 
In general there will be no difference, just that the FSB wall on the P5K is higher giving you a potential higher overclock (do mind, I have seen 510 with a QX6700)
