I am in need of an X58 board that currently has BIOS support for the X5677 or W5677 32nm Quad core Westmere CPU.
Depends where you look on what the CPU will be called officially
It is the 3.47Ghz stock quad with HT and 26x multi + turbo etc.
Any boards have full support? Haven't seen any clocking done with these, there is 1 post on HWBot of X5667 on a RIIE so that seems like a pretty good possibility.
Would be nice if it came with a BIOS that at least booted the chip to flash to newest BIOS, as the other 1366 chips I have access to are also...unsupported probably
Currently looking at either:
Open Box RIIE for $270: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2E16813131352R
New EVGA SLI LE for $220 AMIR: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813188049
Any input if the EVGA supports the newest 32nm stuff yet?
