Hello everyone,

I am buying a new system today. I have everything narrowed down except the motherboard.

So far: e8400, 2x2gb @ ddr2 1000, 8800GTS, 750gb HD

However, I don't do full upgrades often and would like this build to support 45nm quad core cpus. Do we know which chipsets will support them? (I'm guessing it has to support 1600 FSB). Will the p35 chipsets even support these chips? Thanks.
 
But keep in mind that most boards can run it with a bios update, which is impossible without a lower end cpu, so either find out if the board you're interested in has native support for 45nm or if you know it doesn,t then pick up a really cheap cpu just to get the system running far enough to get a bios update.
