oh ok, thats interesting, does it account for major changes(CPU and Motherboard) in the future, im assuming youve considered that and as such thank you very much LukeSavenije

i mean, a pro4 would be able to handle a 8 core, but not much more. for future upgrading to a lot higher i suggest this:

(btw the stock cooler is fine for the 2600, but since you mentioned upgrading i just added it)

i mean, maybe fun as a side project, but a 2600 might be a better choice these days.
