Decided to start building my conroe rig now but need a little help.

CPU TBD
MOBO - Which ocuk mobo currently supports conroe + xfire? Should I wait?
Memory - Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-6400C3
Hard drive - 150gb raptor
PSU - 600w seasonic
Case - Antec P180

What I want to do is buy a rig now but skimp on the CPU and just drop a conroe in when they come out. Will be going crossfire with the x1900xt.

So whats a good intel chip atm but not expensive?
Any xfire conroe mobos out there yet?

805D, then clock the life out of it.
 
The DFI infinity is x-fire and conroe ready but comes with a high premium. Wait until Conroe is actually released as there should be a bigger selection to choose from.

How much are you willing to spend on the CPU? The E6600 will be THE choice for the majority of people, should be around £230-£250.
