Need conroe Motherboard advice

I picked the third but really it matters the features and what fits you

If your not going to oc than it's not worth getting the 3rd choice

If your going to oc and you want basically the best board out there supporting conroe than get the 3rd

Also I am waiting for bios update on the Abit AB9 Pro they are working on getting 450+ FSB speeds and for the price it'd be nice idk about u but i plan not spending more than 150 on my conroe motherboard.
 
ya well that was my plan too but i want Crossfire and i dont want to regret my purchse. Plus the foxconn one is the cheapest and i like the colours lol
 
what the hell... only the boards that destroy my pocketbook support conroe. Christ i dont want to spend the cost of a sports car.

And how do i tell which ones support C2D.. they are all 975X. Is there anything under 300$?

Edit. I have found ONE other c2d mobo. However it doesnt say if it is crossfire or SLI.

Asus P5B Deluxe

Only certain 975x chipset boards support Conroe, you'll have to check the mfg's website for Conroe support. 975x boards support crossfire. The P5W DH Deluxe, and newer revision of Intel 975X badaxe support conroe, all 965 chipset boards support conroe, but don't support crossfire. For SLI support you'll have to wait for the boards with the new nvidia chipset to show up, as the NF4 boards don't support it either.
 
Do a review search in google, it's your friend for each motherboard and see how they stack up in performance. That's how I got mine and couldn't be happier, and after the fact, I found out it was #1 on tomsharware for socket 939 mobos. I know you're not looking at socket 939 but really..

Toms? you trust that?

Anyway it depends if you overclock or not too. Some boards are good overclockers some just suck.
 
Ok.. the MSI one would be good if it was CDN dollars. i think im going to go with what everyone voted which was my Asus P5W DH Deluxe. Should be nice and fast. Thanks for the input guys.
