Project: Conroe for Cheapskates

The goal on this build has been to accumulate cheapo parts for the past two months or so, and use them for a new Conroe build for my first overclocking ventures. The goal isn't necessarily to go absolute cheapo, but to get good OCable stuff for cheap, with a goal of at least 3GHz.

Now that everything is finally on order and either received or en route, I'm doing myself the vanity of a build page. If only I hadn't blown my cash on this stuff, I could get a better camera for some better pix So here's the pieces and prices (includes all shipping, taxes, and rebates... all links to where they were ordered, although not all deals are still active):
