Could you give us some more information on your computer?
What kind of CPU cooler are you using.

I think there is some OCing potential there. It should reach 400 FSB since I checked the Gigabyte CPU support list and the QX9 series (400 FSB native) are supported. It would help if you could take pics of your bios settings and post them. I am curious to see the voltage controls you have available to you.
With a 400 FSB, you could run your Q9550 at 3.4GHz. I just have no experience with the board, so you need to give more info to to OCN before I or anyone else here can really help you.

Go into bios (hit delete at bootup) and go to the section were you can change voltages (most gigabyte board bios refer to this section as M.I.T.). I know the EasyTune program allows you to change settings in bios from within windows, so maybe even a screen shot with that program running will give us your options. Also, go here and fill out your system specs:

It all depends on your temps. Quads do run hotter then dual cores.

Clock for clock the Q9550 will be faster and run cooler. So if you have it in a small case, the Q9550 will be a better choice. But the Q6600 has the potential to OC higher with the 9x multi. So only actual testing will tell. But a Q6600 at 3.4GHz will run hotter then a Q9550 at 3.4GHz for sure.

which is good i really want SLI
Hdmi
and a decent grapics on board
im getting pics
on a different note my new 1tb is a little loud and a hair slow is that normal?
WD cavier black
third one is as high as i can go

Show us the voltage tab. Also, can you crop the pic in paint or something so it is only the EasyTune tab?

Anything showing the bios voltage options. If there is an M.I.T. section, it will be in there.
