    Which DDR3 X38? Asus P5E3 Deluxe w/ WiFi or Gigabyte GA-X38T-DQ6?

    As for stability, i' m on GA-X38-DQ6 with an AC7pro on a Q6600 at 3.4Ghz, and 2x2GB DDR2 at 1066 2.1v, stable as a rock, and very cool. The only thing that sucks is Giga-byte's Web site.

    Yeah, i do miss serial ports from time to time.

    good heatsink for Q6600?

    I'm 8--10c cooler at 3ghz full load with the Freezer 7 pro, over stock Intel. That's more than enough for me.

    What X38 would you get?

    Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6, excellent board, i have it for 2 weeks and couldn't be happier. The only one with two 1394 backplate ports (4 pin and six pin). And 4 esata ports with power, on 2 included brackets.

    good heatsink for Q6600?

    Well, you see every HSF Mfgr wants your money, But believe me, silver metal is more conductive than gold.

    Best Intel Mobo to go with Q6600?

    Intel's best (consumer) is the new X38 board. It should be out by now.

    p5w dh deluxe dead??

    Even a burned cap can do this.

    Is there a "be all end all" motherboard out at this time? Need suggestions please.

    No such animal. You need a reason to choose one mobo over another. I chose the Gigabyte GA-x38-DQ6 because it has 2 1394 ports, and the x38 chipset. Great mobo.

    getting ready to order Q6600 from newegg, what are the odds I'll get a good stepping

    I got my Q6600 G0 from Zipzoomfly last week, along with other goodies with free shipping for everything. I didn't know what G0 was.

    DX38BT now listed @ intel.com

    It's painful to see the PS2 ports gone completely. I'm getting old.. At least a second 1394 back port would be nice.

    That's why i went with Gigabyte, They use the same board for all their top mobos. Must be a pretty good design.

    Do I really need X38?

    If you can afford it, get the X38 and extra RAM. That's what i did today. Money and fish are better if consumed fresh.;)

    Tagan Says [H] Reviews are Paid For.....

    GIGABYTE X38-DQ6 @ [H]

    I' m trying to locate the COM and Firewire PCI brackets-cables for the Mainboard headers. I need 1 Serial (COM) and 1 more firewire on the back PCI plate, without using any PCI slots. Are these genetic items? Gigabyte lists them as accessories, but i think they fit other boards with those headers.
