Default Re: New Build GA-EP45-DS3 + Q9550

Yeah I read the review. I have also found some information that suggest that the first batch of them were a little poor. Id say that they may have had one of these because the first one I had was like that with the voltage dropping off, but the replacement is sweet. Ill never load it up 100% anyway probabl bearly half? Its going good.
UPDATE**
Intel Core 2 Quad 9550 E0 Stepping is On its way as well as the G'Skill 8500 GS-F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK and all the other goodies I mentioned. Yeah!!

I'm going to do a full re build of both computers. Its going to be the Li Lian Case with the X48-DS5 + Q9550 + NH-U12P + G'Skill 8500 4gb + ODIN GT + Hmmmm 8800GT?? + 2X1tb 7200.11 HDD + Sony SATA DVD Burner. the other machine will be the Gigabyte Poeidon Case + EP45-DS3 + E8500 + Thermaltake TR2 RX 550 + Corsair XMS2 800Mhz 4GB + ASUS Artic Squar And the remaining HDD + HD4850??
