Which mobo to go with 7950 gx2 and conroe

[billward]

Originally I was planning on buying a ASUS P5W DH Deluxe mobo, but I found out that that doesn't fit with GeForce 7950 GX2. A list of compatible mobos can be found here: http://www.nvidia.com/content/geforce_gx2_sbios/us.asp
Which one of these would you recommend? I'm also planning on getting conroe E6600.

I'd recommend that you wait a week or two. There's been some talk that the Asus P5W DH in fact DOES support the GX2, but it's still unconfirmed. Patience is the key. Either the Asus board will get "certified" by nVidia, or the n500 motherboards will hit the shelves soon and they will be able to run the GX2 for sure.

With regards to conroe boards the best thing to do is wait a month to see what becomes available. I'm waiting to see a comparison between an Intel 975x and the new Nvidia 590 chipset before I make the move to conroe.
