Not 100% sure but I think the P5N SLI is the only Conroe/SLI mobo availble atm. Suppoedly we wont see any new Conroe/SLI mobos till Oct/Nov. nVidia delayed the chipsets to the manufacturers until the new C55 chipset is ready according to rumors. If the P5NSLI doesnt work for you you'll have to wait.

ASUS just announced today the P5N32 SLI Premium mobo. Its a 590 mobo but it uses the less better C19 chipset and not the better C55 chipset. Thats not a issue for those that dont care about overclocking. But for those that want to overclock it'll be mediocre at best if its like the earlier C19 chipsets prove.

Not even remotely.
