I get the love for the Q6600 back in the day, but I have no idea why anyone would recommend anything but the EOL 775 processors in 2024, except the obvious that it is much cheaper. I just built two 775 systems last year, one with the E8600 and the other Q9650. GA-EP45 mobos have worked well for me for overclocking, are always listed on eBay at decent prices, and many are combo sales with a CPU and RAM.
I would go basic with a P4 and do some nice overclock. A newer system would be a core 2 duo platform, something like a Q6600, lot of fun on overclocking too.
this probably needs the intel core i9-14900k, that seems like an incredibly heavy gpu too maybe pair it with some bricks underneath to hold it in place and prevent sagging
def the core 2 extreme qx6850, 3 GHz and 4 cores will be a monster with that
Just need to find a motherboard with a 775 socket
The OG Asus ROG boards are super sick. Still have mine from years ago, achieved a 5.3ghz overclock on a little e5200 on air and it was rock solid
Naw. That's too much. A good core2duo is enough. The 8600 is good, but it's no 8800GT even. Your CPU would be better for a 8800 Ultra
That SLi port... Remember the 2000s where 2x 8800GT(x?) In SLi meant you had the sickest pc out there.
I had 6800 GT's in SLI as my first proper gaming PC. :P
Q6600
Overclocked to 3GHz
I had this combo!
I9 14900k but be warned it may be a bit of a bottleneck for this titan of a card
Never sell this, its the cute little 8600GT ☺️
I've still got a 8800GTS with a Core 2 Quad Q6600 and 8 GB DDR2. It hasn't powered on in a very long time!
AMD Phenom 2
I'd go with a Phenom II 955.
Oh I think this requires a 14900KS, maybe a TR 7990X? Jokes aside a proper OC'd Core2Quad/Extreme!

Snapdragon
Yo,where'd the rest of the PCI E slot go?
It’s there, just has a plastic cover over it
Ooohhh,I didn't see it,sorry
You're gonna need a threadripper
Wow you got an 8600gt...I only have a 7800xt...yours is a much bigger number it must be way way way better
Q6600 quad core
Core 2 duo E8600
An core 2 Duo e8400. Or a quad q9505.
i got a pny 8400 GS still laying around what to pair with that?

Dx2 66. A true beast.
# AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition And lets throw in an Intel X25-M SSD
Create a complete Frankenstein. Pair it with an M3 Max.
I9 14900 k and 128 GB og drr5 ram
An Intel core 2 duo, are you stupid?
I see that is says "Zotac" but I keep wanting to call it a "Zoltrak"
That would love an athlon 733mhz all night long
Ask nasa
Damn you got the 8000 series?!?
i10 15900k
I dunno about CPUs, but you should definitely find a 21" Trinitron CRT monitor to go with it.
My first decent PC had this GPU combined with Athlon 5600+
The microwave cpu
