timmer Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I'm looking seriously into building a conroe box soon, ideally within the next couple months and am weighing the costs. While I started to consider the more expensive 975 motherboards people have gotten systems up and running on, I just realized that they don't mostly have integrated graphics, which for me would be quite helpful (in terms of cost, cooling, power consumption). In terms of what we know this early, are there any known conroe-compatible boards/revisions that have supported graphics, ie. GMA950? And another question - what are the advantages of using the 975 chipset over 945 if the 945 board supports conroe? Is it in part just board-specific characteristics, like overclockability, or supported bus speeds? Thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
