The Q6600 was a dream boat to OC 2.4 GhZ easily hit 3.4 Ghz
The 9650 is equally as OC'able 3Ghz running @ 4.2 Ghz stable
However the Motherboard is equally if not possibly more important.
ASUS Rampage EXTREME is the best in my opinion
Gigabyte has decent boards but nothing has come close to my ASUS..
You must have a High Performance cooler as well dont attempt with stock coolers
**Attempt at own risk** if you dont read read read you will fry fry fry :)

Where can you get a replacement Socket 775 cover for sending back a faulty motherboard?

What is Socket 775?
Socket 775 (also known as LGA 775 or Socket T) is a socket for certain versions of the Intel Pentium 4, Celeron, Pentium D, Core Solo, Core Duo, Core 2 Duo, and Core 2 Quad. Unlike a traditional "socket", Socket 775 does not have any pinholes. instead, the pins are on the motherboard and reach up to contact the flat surface of the processor. Socket 775 was superseded by LGA 1156, but is still in common usage by most mainstream Core 2 Duo systems (as of January, 2010).
If you were to install a socket 775 processor on an ASRock 945 GCM motherboard what would the differences be?
Your question is very vague. The ASRock 945GCM only supports Socket 775 processors. So obviously the only comparison is that one with a Socket 775 processor installed will do something, and the other will not.
What CPU should you use for socket 775 motherboard?
Depends on how much power you need. You use a Socket 775 processor for a socket 775 motherboard. Core 2 Quad @2.66Ghz, $169.99 Pentium Dual-Core @2.93Ghz, $79.99 The more power, the bigger the price.
If you have a motherboard with 478 socket and you want to replace it with 775 socket processor you cant do that?
Correct.
What socket do Pentium 4s use?
Pentium 4s were available in Socket 423, Socket 478, and LGA 775.
Is Intel generic CPU fan socket 478 compatible with mobo socket 775?
No, it's not.
When talking about an Intel Socket 775 processor What does the 775 refer to?
The number 755 referes to the number of connections between the processor (CPU) and the socket that the CPU goes into. The number (and configuration) of connections between the CPU and the socket must be the same.
Where could one purchase a used socket 775 motherboard?

What is the best core for gaming Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Socket 775 3.0GHz 1333FSB or Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 2.66GHz Socket 775 1066MHz?
You can find benchmarks on tomshardware.com, to find out exactly which processor performs better for the games you'll be playing.
What is the difference between socket 775 and lga 775?
The socket 775 and the LGA 775 are the same. If you want to get technical it's not really a socket CPU, as the pins themselves are located on the socket grid and the back of the processor is flat with contact points. Totally opposite of what were used to seeing. Intel designed it this way to take increase the power distribution. The term LGA stands for Land Grid Array
