Way off-topic...

haha, I'm planing to build my new system at the same time. Which should I buy vista64 or Xp64? Does mingw-GCC run on vista64?

I am probably going to create a dual-boot system XP32 + XP64. Is there a 64-bit mingw yet?

Hi everyone. I just noticed that new processors from Intel are coming out. Specifically there's E6420 with same price as E6400 but with 4MB of L2 cache (E6400 has only 2MB). Regards.

I never liked kingston RAM, why not get some corsair TwinX 6400 CAS4 or 5 stuff?

It doesn't matter what brand, but what chips are on sticks if you're going to overclock.

@ clsid Perhaps a bit late but I woudn't go with the Asus P5B-E, first of all it uses an Attansic LAN-chip and they've been acquired which likely wont continue support on their products (I imagine) and I dont think performance isnt that great either. It also uses an ADI-chip for sound while being a rather good AD seems to be very slow or non existant when it comes to driver updates which may be interesting. I would recommend you to go with Gigabyte Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 which uses Realtek HD Audio-chip and Marvell (Yukon) for LAN. //Danne

No, you're wrong The Gigabyte is solid as a rock, you have a lot of users that can confirm that. Your friends most likely got HW rev 1 which is being replaced by HW rev 3.3 I would personally go for a ViiV platform (due to stability) but they arent OC friendly. //Danne
