Conroe : :slobber:
2.66GHz starting frequency, very impressive.
Note the ditching of SMP (aka HT)
Only 2mb shared? I was expecting 4 and 8 for XE.
great.....more chipsets.
So will i975x support Conroe or not!?
SO when Is Intel going to do something intelligent and Make One CHIPSET that WILL beable to use ALL 775 CPUs?
i985X what the heck! I won't got Conroe XE for sure!
Im thinking that conroe XE will be quad core from seeing how it lacks HT.Quote:

it says 2X1, but we know its 2X2
Sucks no HT.

Too bad they're still using the aging Netburst architecture for the northbridge.... 1333Mhz = 10.6GB/s max theoretical bandwidth between the CPU and chipset. Actual throughput will probably be more like 8GB/s.
Out of that 8GB/s, about 4GB/s is used for PCIe communications in a SLI setup, which leaves a meager 4GB/s for memory bandwidth. Dual channel DDR2 will be able to provide 10.8GB/s of bandwidth EASILY, with 2xPC5400 Micron D9 sticks at 3-2-2 timings.
The only hope is that if one is able to overclock the FSB from 1333Mhz to 2Ghz, which would boost bandwidth from 10.6GB/s to 16GB/s. I highly doubt the northbridge will be able to do that though. There's just too many connections going to it: The CPU, PCIe, memory, AND southbridge.
the conroe xe at stock is equal to an amd x2 @ about 3.6ghz lol
thats total pwnage
but the cache should be 2mb on all models as someone said before, so dont get ur hopes up for those clock speeds.
northbridge isnt used for pci express communications....and there is no sli on intel setups(lol, unless u use the crappy nvidia chipsets which are totally gay)Quote:

thatl probably be a few months down the road...although my guess is theyll be at least as fast as yonah (due to the very small increase in pipeline length and the tweaked execution engine)Quote:
