Will be moving over to Conroe about Sept/Oct and looking for a bit of info.

Want to get the 6600 and 2GB GSkill HZ.whats the best Mobo for these? Also for now i want to keep my 7800GT.I mainly play BF2 and CSS and neither of these really stress my 7800.

How much of a bottleneck in the new system would a 7800GT be?

how many people do i have to remind that they will burn in the firey pits of bealzibubs buttocks before i convince someone to stay with AMD...


LOL will still have the AMD rig apart from the 7800GT.Will be sourcing a 7600GT for the AMD Rig and that will go to my daughter.My boy already has a Opty146 system.

Not a fanboy by any means but have bought AMD for the last few years due to bang for buck.This is the reason im going Conroe and no other.Pound for Pound it is a better option than anything AMD currently have to offer.

Probably the Gigabyte DS3, it has the newer bios revisions and out of the box compatability for Conroe.... However there will be more boards released over the next month or so and nForce5 should also arrive soon. So in the words of Captain Jack Sparrow: "keep a sharp eye!"


a lot, try and sell it on and get hold of a x1900xt maybe, or just wait a bit for the new range of cards to be released and then upgrade.


Thanks for that,
Just been reading on XS about a new Abit due for release.The reviewer was quite impressed.
