The rig is up and going.

WinXP SP2
Intel E6750 Core 2 Duo 2.66 Ghz
Asus P5N-D SLi 750 SLI MOBO
4Gb Gskill DDR2 RAM
1 8600 GT XXX 256 MB DDR3 Ram Video Card

I aint overclocking a thing!!!

I was showing temps of 140F when taxing the CPU and I don't want to risk frying 200 bucks worth of CPU. I'm using stock cooling and may consider upgrading... Who knows.. Right now I just am elated putting all my favorite Open Source doftware on it and seeing the difference this Proc and GPU make on some of my old standard games. Civ 4 is smoking fast!!! (I am not an extreme gamer).

Thank you folks for your advice and input.

Any idea on how to cool this puppy down? I have 1 200mm fan and 3 120s in the case along with the cpu fan. They are all running on high.

Well, maybe I am hoping for the moon.
