    Yeah, I guess you guys are right. My current system is about 5 years old, so the complete upgrade is long overdue.

    Thank you

    i guess the big question for all of us is, which ghz wall our respective cpu-cooling will run into, then we can make a good decision on which cpu to buy so we don't run into the mobo fsb limitation.

    e.g. i'm wondering if i need the 2666 or 2400 conroe model. if my high end watercooling can't get the conroe cooled above ... let's say 3915 (435*9) - (391*10); it would be stupid to buy the higher priced 2666.

    so the questions i would like to see answered before launch date is, will the current 965 - 975 mobo fsb wall remain at 435ish; what kind of GHz might one assume on water. those questions answered will help me decide which chip to buy.

    i think it was fcg that already stated that watercooling doesn't do much for the conroe, i still hope someone proves him wrong :p

    it will also be interesting to see what kind of NB cooling you need to get 435fsb stable.

    Well, Intel is... Colder = better

    Conroe is = little heat..

    High conductivity vs low conductivity = more important the WARMER the hardware is..

    That means, phasechange will benefit ALOT over AIR/WATER..

    so even max voltage for the conroe doesn't heat it up enough for air - water to make a difference?

    Simply awesome. I bet that this must caused an general alert at AMD, as I don't think their chip could kick off Conroe from the top

    So the performance is now with Intel again

    Damn, it is sick to see 11sec 1M SuperPi times when I can't get bellow 30 myself

    Anyway, congratulations Fuger for first Conroe tests and great results with it!
    First man bellow 13sec, congratulations!

    And congratulations for coolaler for 11.266 1M SuperPi WR!
    You are getting owned soon, I think with later steppings, but you was first man bellow 12sec and no one can take that from you - ever

    Now who will be the first man bellow 11sec? And bellow 10sec? I settle for 9.999, but get it bellow 10 sec...!

    I ordered from Ewiz. It supports conroe, the part number matches the one of the MSI 975X V2 (V2.1) Power Up edition. I am not sure if this is true though, will post results next week. Can't wait
