Mushkin is fine.

G skill is a bit newer, more on the value end of things, but they make some awesome ram.

I run G Skill right now, and that kit I linked is a great value.

So would you suggest the G Skill Ram he rec'd?

What about this Mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)

This Dfi is the same price as the Abit, I'm actually not really sure what the difference is between them other than surface.

DFI LP LT P35 T2R LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard

They are both extremely nice boards. You really can't go wrong with either one.

The abit may be a better choice for you though, DFI makes incredible boards and you can't go wrong with them, they are just packed with features and can be a bit complicated for newer overclockers.

I would go with the g skill over mushkin. Mushkin has kind of disappeared as of late and really hasn't put out any great products. There is a lot of experience with that g skill and the reactions to it seem to be great.

I as well would recommend the G.Skill... as far as Abit vs. DFI - the only real differences I've seen are at extremely high FSB (600+) ... but that could be just my luck

Have either of you ordered from Clubit? looks like they have that Q6600 GO.

Any other places to order from or just go with Newegg?

Thanks again guys!
