You shoulda asked this question BEFORE buying the mobo!!

Intel is NOT that good with regards to Dual core. The 800 series cpu's honestly STINK. The 900 series is the way to go, if you go with intel.

PS: do you not read reviews on other forums about hardware?

CPU: Q9550@2.83Ghz
GPU: ATi HD 4870X2
M/B: GigaByte X38-DS5
RAM: 8Gb DDR2 1066Mhz
PSU: GigaByte 620W

What chipset does your mobo has?
dual core cpu require a 945, 955 or 975 chipset; some mobos with 865 chipsets are also known to work with dual core cpu

I have a PeniumD 820 2.8ghz and is a "blast"; i encode a movie to divx in 20 minutes or less (full image and sound processing); saing that this cpu's are bad is absolutely wrong!

ITS ABSOLUTLEY RIGHT!

They stink compared to AMDs dual core, rediculus power consumption, only decent thing it has going for itself is encoding.
