Intel也要桌面双插座了～

An unusual announcement came out of IDF today about Intel’s upcoming Skulltrail platform. Skulltrail is effectively a competitor to AMD’s Quad FX platform, it is a dual socket motherboard capable of supporting two quad-core CPUs. Intel lists Skulltrail has having support for “four PCI Express slots”, which we can only assume means four PCIe x16 slots.

  Skulltrail won’t make its debut until later this year and Intel isn’t confirming whether or not it uses LGA-775 chips or Xeons. The predecessor to Skulltrail is Intel’s V8 platform, originally demonstrated at CES 2007 in Las Vegas, and unfortunately that platform requires the use of Xeon CPUs. Since it’s effectively a Xeon based workstation platform, you’re stuck with using FB-DIMMs which are hardly desirable from a cost, performance or thermal standpoint when building an enthusiast class PC. We do hope that Skulltrail severs the tie with Xeon/FB-DIMMs but we are quite suspicious of Intel’s lack of full disclosure today at IDF.

  就是不知道显卡方面的支持如何。
不过AMD方面刚刚宣称R HD 2900是支持四卡CF的 (_(

让ASUS做个能插8块8800的外置显卡:devil:

其实早就应该开放双处理器插槽。
如果早点开放，现在的办公，娱乐从多核中得到的性能提升远比现在的情况好。
这点AMD去年搞的4 X 4，偶极力支持。:thumbsup:

做双插座是好事，但是硬要作成ATX板子就YY了
除了那几根显卡的插槽之外，别的卡都摆不上了
还是老老实实的作成服务器的板子才是王道

喜欢FULL-ATX的板子.....................
