new motherboard and processor

i want to purchase a new motherboard and i dont know what to buy. these days there are so many tipes of chipset that i dont know what to choose (i'm a noob when it comes about motherboards)-i'm not interested in sli mode.
also what is better an E8400 or Q6600 (thay have the same price)?
on my new system i'll have a 8800gt videocard, 4gb ddr2 (1066 mhz), 600 watt source
thx

 

Why not get a Q9450?

Get a Hd 4850 about same price as 8800gt but much better.

4GB corsair may I suggest.

If you are not interested in SLI or CF, I strongly reccomend the p5k premium. Great board and very stable.

 

Go for the q6600, 4 cores is better than 2, and you can overclock it to get the e8400 frequency.
Get an intel board, they are more stable than nvidia. p5k premium was a good suggestion but basically anything with a p45, x38 or x48 chipset and you'll be set.

 

yeh if you get a q6600 make sure q6600 go

@ mochen love ur board and GPU's

 

q6600 is allmost half price that q9450
thx for your sugetion about HD4850. u are right-is better that 8800gt

 

Yep much better and far point about q6600 but make sure you get a q6600 go...

 

explain me why is so special q6600 go?

 

It consumes less power.

So then it runs cooler basically new architechture than older B3 stepping and also overclocks better.

 

guys, thx for your replies. finally i have decided to buy ASUS P5Q. this motherboard will make a good "team" with Q6600 prosessor and with HD4850
