Socket AM2- M2 motherboards to cost $5 to $10 more

SilveRRIng disse:
O Fuad é mesmo atrofiado do juizo. O gajo fala do chipset novo da nvidia, diz que não deverá ter 32 lanes para as gráficas porque isso normalmente requer North e SouthBridge. Nas fotos vê-se bem que a board em causa, da MSI, tem apenas um chip e quando ele se refere às caracteristicas da mesma diz que tem 2x PCIe 16x + 2x PCIe slots, etc?! Então mas que raio em que é ficamos?

Simples... Todas as boards SLI actuais tem 2x PCIe 16x. Só que a maioria somente faz 8x + 8x =16x lanes quando com duas gráficas em SLI. Somente 2 ou 3 boards actualmente são capazes de suportar 16x + 16x =32x lanes e essas possuem 2 chipsets (NB+SB), tal como refere e bem o Fuad.

Já li em alguns sitios que pelo menos as boards que estão a sair até agora com 975X não são compativeis, nem ficaram visto ser um probleba da localização das resistencias no socket.
Já não sei onde li isso...

[975X Boards Not Ready For Conroe Yet]

We tested some of the 975X boards out there but none can support Conroe so far and not even a BIOS update can fix it. Apparently there are some hardware modifications that need to be done to the board before Conroe can run on it. That means there will be new revisions of 975X boards coming out in the next few months to support Conroe. More pics and discuss here.

Foi aqui} que li. Blaster onde viste o contrario? E que estou realmente interessado nisso :P
Em relação ao 920 que fui buscar... Era impossivel estar mais satisfeito... Em breve serão postados resultados incluindo um mini comparativo amd ( o meu 170) intel...
Só posso dizer bem... A plataforma não tem nada a ver com o nf4... Super estavel, com uma data de opções e funções que dão mt geito... Será tudo falado na analise.

Socket AM2 information
Today three sites have new information about the forthcoming AMD socket called AM2. As we all know, it's going to use new 940 pin socket(not compatible with the existing Socket 940) and DDR2 memory. At gathering.tweakers.net you can see some spy photos from the MSI K9N Platinum (Socket AM2) board. AnandTech also has this "AMD AM2: More than just a Memory Change" article, with some detailed Socket AM2 HSF Cage pictures. Finally VR-Zone comes with complete listing of NVIDIA's upcoming AM2 chipsets:

* C51XE+MCP55PXE: Supports Socket M2 FX & Athlon 64 processors, 2 x16 SLI slots (total 46 lanes, 9 links), Six SATA ports with RAID5, dual Gigabit LAN with ActiveArmor and UAA Audio.
* MCP55P SLI: Supports Socket M2 FX & Athlon 64 processors, 2 x8 SLI slots (total 28 lanes, 6 links), Six SATA ports with RAID5, Dual Gigabit LAN with ActiveArmor and UAA Audio
* MCP55 Ultra: Supports Socket M2 FX & Athlon 64 processors, 1 x16 slot (total 20 lanes, 5 links), Six SATA ports with RAID5, Dual Gigabit LAN with Active Armor and UAA Audio.
* MCP55S : Supports Socket M2 Sempron processors, four SATA ports, one Gigabit LAN, UAA Audio

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has reached agreements with unspecified Taiwan motherboard makers for presenting its next-generation Socket-M2 processors at CeBIT 2006, industry sources noted.

By the end of this month, most motherboard makers will receive samples of AMD's next-generation 940-pin platform for sampling for the March 9-15 CeBIT exhibition, according to the sources. Those motherboard companies, however, will need to follow customer confidentiality agreements with AMD and only showcase the respective M2-based models during the show while not revealing detailed specifications.

AMD plans to stop production of its 939- and 754-pin platforms by the first quarter of 2007, the sources indicated.

Details on MSI AM2 boards
IT-review has some nice pictures and info on the upcoming MSI socket AM2 offering. The top of the line K9N SLI Platinum is based on the nForce 570 SLI MCP and comes with a slew of features:
· NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI MCP chipset
· Supports Socket AM2, 64bit Athlon 64 and Athlon FX processors
· 2 PCI-E x16 slots for SLI
· Hyper Transport support speed up to 2GHz
· 4 DIMMs DDRII 533/667/800 up to 8GB
· Dual LAN 10/100/1000 and FireWire
· 8-channel High Definition Audio
· Supports 6 SATAII, storage and data transfer up to 3.0GB/sec
· SATA 1~6 suports RAID 0/1/0+1,5
· 2 PCI-E x16, 2 PCI-E x1, 3 PCI slots
· 10x USB 2.0, 2x IEEE1394
