Okay, as of now i have 785.59 to spend on a conroe setup (cpu,mobo,ram) Will that be enough money to buy a pretty good conroe setup? sorry for the dumb question i just dont know much about the prices of the conroes.
 
Anandtech reviewed Conroe motherboards today. There are also some prices listed. If someone wants to check those out to make a system, go ahead. I'm feeling miserable right now, so I can't do it, sorry.
 
The thing that sucks right now is your looking at the $250 range for any decent mobo. That price will go down, but it could be a while.

For 2gb of RAM, your looking at about $200.

So for mobo and RAM your at about $450, that leaves a little over $300 left for the CPU.

Realistically, the E6600 will probably end up running you around $350. You could drop to an E6400 and have room to spare.
