What is with the pricing?
Q6600, $180
4gb DDR2 Corsair, $60
620w Corsair PSU, $140
How did you come up with $400 for that? It's $250 on newegg with rebate.
How about you pick a sane motherboard for sub $200 that will work perfectly fine?

1. Negligible (and this will probably turn into a loss, consider how amazing the Q6600's overclock) performance boost is worth $140 more?
2. And? It scales with your FSB. 1333fsb = 667 ram speed to match. You'd need an FSB of 2132 to match 1066.
333 fsb / 2830 mhz = 8.5 multiplier. Get it?
3. It's probably far more than enough. Good rails > wattage.
4. Why get an ancient 780i? Waste

Fuck no.
But get the 750w Corsair, it's better and far cheaper.
Also don't bother with nVidia chipsets, get an Intel.
