    How important do you think the 2600k's extra 2MB cache be over the 2500K?

    It seems the conclusion is that for gaming there won't be much of a difference, can anyone tell me for video encoding (basically frapsing gameplay footage @1650x1080 or w/e that resolution is then encoding it with virtualdub) would be different between the two processors?

    putting the the processor on the mobo.

    When I put my first machine together I was just like you, don't worry its all really simple. My abit Mobo had a great manual so yours will probably be just as good, just go with what it says and do everything slowly and careful and you'll do fine.

    Not able to use USB keyboard while booting up?

    My keyboard was like that, until in bios I changed something I forget where, but I set it to have BIOS to control the keyboard, and not the OS, somewhere in my BIOS was a mouse controller and keyboard controller, hope you get the idea, take a look around, what mobo you have?

    My Zalman 7000Cu works like a charm, if OCing turn it up with the little remote and its still pretty quiet, and if not then turn it down and you pretty much can't hear it at all, the only pain was getting the damn thing on, ;p.

    Yeah, its onboard sound. I know I've got the speakers in the right port, I think I've got some of the wiring screwed up or something, I'm stumped X_X. I'm sure it'll end up being the dumbest thing too. edit: If it helps the onboard sound is 'onboard realtekk ALC650 6-channel AC 97 CODEC'

    hmm, I've got a pure copper one, I assume the model is the same, pretty sure it is since I looked at both...
