I only hope to reach 3-3.2 ghz. And I am talking about the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L. Now I don't know about the heatsink so I will look into it more. And I also dropped the OCZ to the Corsair HX620. OH and I have lots of room and don't care about looks. I think I might go for the Tuniq Tower 120.


I will also look into folding when I get this new system. I will try to fold over night but it is all on what my parents say.


Well I placed my order and I am excited! Thank you all for your help and time. This is a great community.

Isn't the DS3L low-end compared to the P5K?
I'd like to know how it does though as one of my friends is looking into a new cheap setup and that's what I'm going to recommend him to get.

I'm running a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L with an E2140 @ 3.0, using Mushkin's EM2-6400. Can't beat that, it's a cheap but good performer setup.

Ok so everything is here but the mobo. The quad core product code is a G0 code but won't know till I have the mobo. I love the PSU! it has 2 PCI-e 6/2 and 2, 6 pins, and a 4/8 pin mobo. Lots of conectors and some conectors only ment for fans. Should get mobo tomorrow as it just entered the MISSISSAUGA, ON sortation plant but Canada post is slow.

Good for? If it's for oc'ing, no. If it's for voltages, no. If it's for temps, no.

Basically, don't install it.

OC via the BIOS, voltages with a multimeter is your best bet (never did it personally though), and for temps you can use Speedfan or Coretemp. I think that Speedfan has an issue with the Quads, but I'm not sure.

Now OC that Quad until i screams "Enough!".
