100% build success.
My W7 build is complete.
Tomorrow night I start using it to mix a song.
More to follow, I'm sure.

Do you have a song with 64 bits in it lined up?

1 x VGA ASUS EN210 SILENT/DI/1GD3/V2 Is that any quicker/better than the on-chip Intel 3000 VGA? edit: scrub that, the answer is not but you'd have needed an H67 board to use it which would have limited your to overclocking options 4.2.Ghz. Hmm nice one Intel that's pretty crazy even by their standards.)

Actually to get max res out of the 30" Dell monitor I needed a dual head card. And plus also, the mobo does not have an onbaord video.

Did you quote my edit without reading it? Maybe you need a bigger monitor...

It seems to me that Intel messed this one up the 2600k which has all the overclocking options enabled also has the better on-board graphics than the 2600 which has limited overclocking options. The H67 chipset allows the graphics but not the overclocking the P67/Z68 allows the overclocking but not the graphics. So why in heavens name put the 3000 graphics that no self-respecting overclocker will use anyway on the K series and limit the 2600 which is better paired with the H67 (due to the limited OC options) to the much lesser 2000 series graphics? These ultra intelligent people that design these fantastic chips seem also to lack the ability to tie their shoe laces. I went for the 2600 H67 combo in the end just to save a few bux, on the board, chip and video card (around £60 in total) and I know if I had a 2600K chip I'd eventually take it a tweak too far..

Funny, but I'm not a tweaker and so it's probably a waste that I got the 2600K. But maybe when I write that Kontakt/Miroslav/Omsisphere/Trillium/SampleTank|Tron|Moog/Superior Drummer Metal Foundry ditty I may consider it.

Yes, but I'm using it drive a single 30" Dell that needs both ports to get max resolution (2560x1600).

YAY I just got word mine is arriving on Friday. I did some research on the Z68 boards too and while the chipset itself is on-chip video capable seems that particular board doesn't implement it. No biggie as the Z68's seem to overcome the limitations the P67/H67's have although they still currently cost a bit more. Taking any 2600 sandybridge chip to 4.2 Ghz doesn't seem to be a problem on any of the boards but it seems if you want to push above that then the P67/Z58 2600K combination is the way to go. In the UK you'd currently save around £60 going for the 2600 H67 B3 Express (as I did, as budget was my main concern) over the 2600K P67 B3 Express Combi and around £140 over a 2600K/Z68 Board pair. Performance looks to be in the same ball park for all sandy bridge mobo combinations up to 4.2 Ghz a Z68 though if you can run to it at build time seems to offer most overall flexibility going forward and the ability to push it all to the max. Any one of them will kick serious butt for some time to come and don't overlook the i5 2500's either if budget is even tighter as they are not far off the 2600's in the grunt dept.

It will get my bad playing back to my ears much quicker, allegedly, what's more I'll be able to produce more of it in less time. A machine is only out of date when it gets in the way of your ability to do what you want I reckon. I would still be able to do exactly what I'm doing today in ten years time with my current AMD 64 X2 4000+ if it (or I) lived that long, but I won't have to bounce down/freeze sub-mixes so often which is starting to become a pain. Other than that increased comfort I can't see another compelling reason to U/G. Oh yeah I forgot I'll have a kewl new computer too...
