Need info...Intel Dual Core T2600..

Got this cpu...http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/Produc...ductCode=86119

Back to Intel...my last one is PIII 800..

What mobo and memory to run this cpu? Anyone tried with -90C?
Thanks in advance:)

This is must be the mobo that creates all the buzz:) ....http://www.cdrinfo.com/forum/tm.asp?...page=1&#125559

I talked to Aopen San Jose and they said March release...:(

Tired with AMD's cold bug....I will jump ship if neccessary..

Is this asus mobo work ok?......http://www.allstarshop.com/shop/prod...d=fg&pid=13585

Believe me you won't regret. Dothan and now Yonah are awesome chips. I am waiting for MB too.

No, that asus board will not work with yonah

Initial run with this cpu will be with Asus P5WD2-E, I hope it will be ok. with cold:)

OOps, This Asus won't work..

actually this motherboard will work with this cpu.
obiously the main reason is, sockets aren't compatible.

Ofcourse sockets are not compatible. It will not work unless asus releases adapter. Same was with s478 boards and dothan. You need asus ct479 adapter to run it.

the cpu and mobo are totally different sockets. It would be easier to run a 754 chip in a 939 mobo than to run yonah in 775.

So, which mobo should I get for intel duo cpu?
Sorry....still a noob with this new Intel stuff:)

Yeah, just waiting. I don't understand why you would drop $400+ on a cpu that won't have a compatable motherboard for a while.

It will soon:) and this cpu probly will be a gem once its up and running..

Just get rid of my AMD cpu (and cold bug that goes with it) and its acessories, so its a new ball game.
@ least my cooling doesn't have to stay idle.

Edit:
Any decent DDR2 that you probly know will scale ok?
Thanks cirthix.

Yup I am planning on doing the same dumping my god for shaken DFI/DC Opteron combo thats picky as hell and getting the Duo 2600, and Aopen board with CF Support. Yummy:slobber:

First chips are usually the best :)

Thanks cirthix.

See if you can get ahold of some discontinued Micro D9 Fatbodies, there is a sticky in the "Xtreme Bandwidth Forum" with possible models.

We also have the brand new Mushkin XP2-5300, Rated at DDR2-667 3-3-3-10 that can overclock easily to DDR2-800 3-3-3

I'm also wanting to go for the Aopen / T2600 setup but I have a question. If a 479 pin yonah can bench / outperform AMD, then why does AMD need 460 more pins (939 - 479), or the socket 775 intel need more pins?

Thanks

I've seen it happen with the CABNE 0530 opteron 144/146 and so on and with the opteron 170 0530's.

I've got a good feeling about that chip, now you just need that Aopen board.... :)

i would say power, hyper threading, hyper transport, stuff like that. But you can't really compare them.

Becuase their different architectures right?

"See if you can get ahold of some discontinued Micro D9 Fatbodies"

They're discontinued? I just went to my local retailer and they had a couple in stock plus their supplier hasn't specified a limit on how many they have.

I think they just said they're discontinued to drive the price up.
