Processor:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66GHz
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16819115029

I do NOT approve the build. Your motherboard has Quad core OC lacking. Even though you're buying a Dual core, you'll want to upgrade to Quad core soon. Get the A1 version:

Well the board I was looking at does support Quad-core. I don't know about OCing, but i'm not one to usually do that anyway

If you're not planning on Overclocking, then the board you've shown is fine. If it would have been something like 5 bucks difference though, I would of advised you for th A1, as it is the premium of these series.

Well besides OC abilities is the A1 board much better or any different at all?

not really, it supports the 1333 bus, and the quad core fine other than ocing

Well I will take a look at the price differences with a C2Q and that board. Not sure if i'm willing to polly up the price tag though.
