Hello this is going to be the first time i build my own computer.

I do alot of gaming and want the best preformance with low budget.

I have everything except the motherboard and cpu.

Number 1 on my list what motherboard do you reccomend to work with no problem thats a socket 775(core 2 duo e6600 2.4) SLI board- 1gig ocz high preformance gold series ram ddr2-533
These were the 2 boards that looked to run the best without much problems

(1)ECS NFORCE 570 SLIT-A (V5.1) LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813135026
or
(2)JetWay 775GT1-LOGE LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813153056
I have 400 dollars to spend on a processor and motheboard together i get get 1 of the boards above and a core 2 duo e6600 Which board do you reccomend that would be more sturdy and reliable and great for over clocking if you know a better sli core 2 duo motherboard that is good please let me know - later on im getting 2 xfx geforce 7900gs 2 run in sli

a E6600 with a cheap mobo isnt too good, get a E6300 and a $150 mobo and spend the extra $50 on a better GPU
 
you should wait until after june 22, the C2D will be coming down alot, the E6600 is going from $315 now to $225 after the drop
 
Don't get SLi 7900GSs! The performance increase is minimal, and an 8800GTS would be around the same amount of money, and be a DX10 card as well.
 
sound good or not

building a new computer and i do major gaming do these components look good

core 2 duo e6300- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115005

NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813188010

on a motherboard and cpu together i can spend around 400 dollars
and would it be better if i get a ecs nforce 570 sli and a core 2 duo e6600 2.4ghz

Let me know if you know a great sli motherboard that supports c2d and is at a lower price then the 680i?
 
excuse moi but I'm the one and only firsttimebuilder and I will be forever even after The comp I just built =p

edit* mobo's a overkill with a e6300 in less your planing on OCing it
