'wishes he wasnt married' and still single.....such is life. keep ups posted how they clock.
Cool, I thought these'd be under NDA for some time. (They aren't, are they? )
I am a beta tester for Intel . . .
I do not have those answers. I think I will be allowed to post benchmarks when PDXLAN 11 rolls around thoBeta tester? Where do I send my resume? Can you tell us when we can expect these boards and at what prices? Or is that information also under NDA?
I have been given limitations as to what I can disclose.No benchmarks, restriction on feature specifications, etc. I can take all the pix I want.
It is going in my custom Mountain Mods 22" phase changed cube. . .Is that skulltrail board going to fit in a standard ATX case?
I have a mountain mods duality and wondering if that bohemeth will fit in there.
My wife supports my rampant modding habit both financially and emotionally
Ahhh, She got a sister that likes long haired guys?
Seriously, I'm a few days off of 2 years in to this relationship and she's already nagging about how I spend unnecessary money on my computer. Hell I barely even game, I could get by with a 7300GT in my system and probably never notice it.... but it's me, and that's not going to happen, plus there's the LAN party e-peen contest I have to win every freakin' time.
I'm terribly about one-upping my friends with stuff... I assume it's incredibly annoying for them too.
http://www.google.com/search?q=skul...s=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-awhats up with this board? what is this skulltrail? never heard of it?
call me a noob or whatever..but oh well..
wow
so will this thing also support 2x q6600?
or does it only apply to the new cpu's coming out in january ?
Edit: Oh crap, guess that single socket mobo won't do SLI right?
No. Dual socket Intel processor compatible boards are for socket 771 Xeon processors.
Not unless NVIDIA changes their policy on SLI support on non-NVIDIA chipsets. Since the 780i SLI chipset was just released I'd say that is highly unlikely.

The skulltrail platform running at IDF was running 8800 GTX's in SLI, and the board itself appeared to have a pair of nvidia MCPs. The chips where socket 771 though, at least, im assuming so, because it was using fb-dimms.
I'm assuming that they are running nvidia chipsets to use SLI (and they did look like it), but it could have been their own chipset, with a change in nvidia's rules, but i doubt it.
Ahh, Well, I would agree on calling bullshit. They probably purchased a license to use the SLI, if they did in-fact purchase something from nvidia.
Supposedly Skulltrail is SLI compatible because of an NVIDIA chip that Intel purchases and integrates into their board design. The Skulltrail board is still an Intel chipset, but supposedly has this SLI compatible chip added to the mix. Personally, I think that's bullshit. None of Intel's chipsets need any other hardware to be SLI compatible.
not sure what mean by bs...I like Intel and Nvidia alot and hope both floursh and keep pushing forward
true but it does mean that the nVidia driver finds an nVidia chip when it looks for 1 before enabling SLI ...I call BS on that one as such a chip isn't needed.

Dont ever come to parties that I go to then... lol
Well I'm aiming for a new MB and some water cooling for this quad and the 8800GT and that should net some pretty good results... but yeah, as per your sig, holy crap, qx9650! I *just* jumped on the G0 Q6600 bandwagon.
Nice car btw One of my favs.
