Penryn + SLI

so the 1333 support on the current 650sli and 680sli is meant for those cpu released on july 22?

Mr.X

So, Is 680i the only board that is supposed to support Penryn? What about those with x975 chipsets? I don't want to replace my P5W DH just yet.....

that is :banana::banana::banana::banana:, 680i Supports 1333 FSB officaly and was the first Chipset wich support it officaly.

My question in Penryn on 680i is the FSB, some 680i Board can't go to 1333 with Quadcores and 45nm QC will be the same too.
So 680i with 45nm QC is nothing for OC like nforce500 for Core 2 Duo.

Yes also curious if it runs on 975's too. I guess a mobo upgrade isn't out of the question but it might be nice to put that off but still get a Penryn

P35 and X38 motherboards support Penryn too.
x975 chipset can support Penryn, but your P5W DH won't.

Edit:
What is what?:
Wolfdale = desktop dual core?
YorkField = desktop quad core?

Penryn= server?

even QX CPUs are sorting averaging around 3.3-3.4GHz on 24/7 systems....due to the heat output....

but if you stick it under DICE or LN2 you'd probably be safer with P35 boards unless there will be another revision which supports even higher quad OCs.... :)

This is very promising, well........I can only hope :-p.

Yes that would be nice, but we know better than to ask since the people that have them here likely didn't find them on eBay (thus NDA'd).

I have noticed that Penryn ES chips are not available through other channels, and unless I'm mistaken, the Conroe ES chips were here a bit earlier in the year. So whereas Conroe was released around July 27th, I would expect Penryn to be Oct/Nov timeframe. I still have my money on Intel getting to retail before AMD with Barcelona/Agena, but earlier in the year I would have expected Penryn retail chips by July/August. Oh well.

I'll keep waiting for that awesome day when I come to the forums and there's a topic in the Intel forum titled "Penryn ES first benches!" or something. :)

you sound excited

heh

it will be a good addition for sure.....from some hints heheheh :D but that could be from extra cache they have donno

the most important info will be OC capability but we have to be patient as i don't think there will be too many people talking about results just yet

You say that x975 can support Penryn, yet my P5W DH won't? Why is that? Last time I checked it had a x975 chipset. Does is it have to do with voltage or something?

Maybe we can expect some ''unofficial'' support then? ;)

any guesses on what c2d will be the penryn of choice?

...besides e6850.

:sonic: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/....php?p=2218206

The e6850 is a 1333fsb conroe rather than penryn.

I would expect the 45nm chips to be a part of a new chip series rather than using the ?6??0 of the 65nm parts, otherwise your not left with any room to ramp up the clocks.
