CEBIT 2005: AMD or Intel? Same Motherboard!
Quote:
Here at CeBIT 2005, you see innovation galore, but at the ECS stand they have something truly special that stands out as being one of the hottest products of the show. HEXUS brings you the ECS PF88, the first mainboard to support both Intel P4 AND AMD Athlon 64 processors.

What about the other option
Could it not be a hypertransport™ bus as 1.) AMD is the major cpu manufacturer behind it 2.) this is what it is intended for by design
would that not make even more sense? I mean who would go with a bus designed by your biggest competitor when you are involved in one that is as good if not better :shocked2:
seems like they took ASRock™'s idea a bit farther
