    About 2 and a half years now. And yes, Sherbooke. And BTW, you do release that you and I have successfully hijacked this thread. I was trying to subtle... *sigh*

    Re: Which X58 board for new i7 build?

    hello,

    I'm sorry to bring this up again, but I think it was mentioned earlier in the thread that the gulftown CPU's will use 2 QPI links between the IOH and CPU. It's been claimed by various sources the new CPU's will be compatible with the current X58 series of boards, but don't these boards use only 1 QPI link? How then can they be compatible with core i9?
    Industrial espionage is simply the sincerest form of flattery......
