    After 65 pages of reading about the QX9300 and its issues along with the Northbridge heat issue. I have decided to go with the X9100. Its also so I don't have to worry about clearances between the heatsink as well as the stuttering issue. Going to try to pick one up sometime within the next month.
    Just wanted to say thanks to all who spent time over the last 2 years. You all saved me alot of grief by sharing your experience. Now if only I could find a pair of ati 4850s.
