i5 2500k can easy clock to 4500mhz 24/7 and costs about £180
i7 2600k can easy clock to 4500mhz 24/7 and costs about £250


How much did your i7 975 EE cost ?? ;)

HAHAHA cheap rubbish i really dont care about the sata probs they will get fixed. glad i bought the p8p67 deluxe has 4 6gb sata ports. that will do me untill new boards come out. guess what i still prefer this setup to my rampage 3 extreme and i7 930 £ 4.3ghz. plenty cooler and runs 4.7 ghz stable 24/7.
and uses less electric.
