Thanks for the reply.

I need more replies ASAP because GCO and some of the deals is going to expire soon.

Thanks!

Sorry, lol, I didn't answer any of your questions at the bottom. The current Q6600's aren't OC'ing as well these days, it's sad to say, if you still want that cheap quad OC get the Q6700 (you'll hit at least 3.6 no problem) or drop down to two cores and get the E8400 or the like, and enjoy 4.0 :P I checked out that CPU cooler for you, it looks pretty wide and might bump the NB stock heatsink...that's not a problem though, because when you're installing you can just put on your Rifle 90 degrees (oriented up). That cooler master has the same setup that my Apevia X-Telstar has, 3x120mm's...only if you're anal about cooling should you get more fans, but my ambient case temperature even under load is like 37C.

System: Meh.

Ahh, this sucks. The computer boots but it can not detect my SATA HD but it can detect my DVD Burner. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I finally got the BIOS to detect the HD but it's still useless and I can't install the OS.

You could try different SATA ports, or swap in a different HDD to make sure the one you got isn't dead.
