Q6600 all the way .i'd suggest the same till some better proccy arrives which can do better ocing than Q9450 and at a better price.

Q9300 does not offer any benefit as per reviews

Q6700 does not offer any benefit except its 10 multipliers and there's no difference between Q6060 and Q6700.he will overclock,thats why i'm suggesting Q6600.buying a good board (IX38)
Q9450 is way tooooo costly for a 200mhz overclock-what other benefit it has i dont understand (i myself have that proccy)

so as far as i have seen people say 6600 is VFM but 9300 is good as well as it consumes less power and can be overclocked till 3.5ghz...

so do u think i should go with 9300 which is already available

q6600 =better overclock.why waste extra cash for a low overclock? Power consumption indicates heat generated,nothing more. and i've already stated thermalright 120e will never let q6600get hot.

^+1...the q6600 is one of the best quad core overclockers aand since u have th best aircooler in the world u can easily take it upto 3.6Ghz but u mite find some trouble hitting the 4Ghz mark....the best overclock for a Q6600 seems to be 3.6Ghz at 400fsb. I suggest save that 3k on q6600 over q9300 and get a good gfx card like the 8800GT or maybe the ati 4xxx series....get the Q9450 if u have the cash to get it and a good gfx card...
imo:Q9450>Q6600>Q9300

yea its great..680i /IX38 perform almost same in terms of overclocking , benefit is PCI2.0 with IX38 which will be more future proof..corsair rams are good.
Overall a great workstation
