How will Conroe and its supporting chipsets handle 4GB(4x1GB)? That's what I'm hoping for in a Conroe build.

I am running a next generation ATI chipset. (hearing brakes lock up)
This will be the hot board this summer.
That is all the information I can give at this time.
4GB is fine with Conroe
With Conroe, it is possible to disable one core from bios and force all 4MB cache on one core. This will yield a higher overclock of a few hundred Mhz.

Of course i've got single threaded benchmarks @ maximum speed in mind

New Ati chipset faster and/or more overclockable than Intel? Would be interesting if true.
I have decided nothing yet but I tend to favour the 900w Tagan psu

i have a question, a silly it might be, but would someone mind explaining, why people are choosing the PC6400 RAMs instead of those PC8000 ones? shouldnt the PC8000 ones would be able to yield higher overclocks? somethin like PC4800 DDR1 which guarantees u 300Mhz?

why asus if we can get dfi

Man Im glad I joined up. Loadz happening on XSOriginally Posted by FUGGER
Cant wait to hear what that chipset can do.
Would that be the R600 chipset?Originally Posted by FUGGER
I was reading a bit about that chipset and somewhere it says that motherboards with this chipset can handle physics while a video card could do everything else. This in turn would eliminate the need for those extra physics cards.
Do you know anything about that?
Also read that ATI has already sent out Directx10 devkits to video game creators. ATI seems to have gotten really cozy with Microsoft :smileysex At the moment it looks like ATI is doing alot of things right. Haven't heard too much out of the nvidia camp except that my future intel based system I invest in will not have enough bandwidth to support SLI

So what is the NDA date for Conroe specs's officially? Also I heard this morning that it will run on existing I865 motherboards (yes, AGP, DDR1, etc.) Can anyone confirm or deny this information? I believe the INQ posted the story this morning.

Do you REALLY think DFI Conroe Board is avaible in August ?Originally Posted by Vassili
I believe it first, when I see it.
I believe Intel is launching Conroe at Computex.Originally Posted by Rickster_64
I'm surprised there has been no details for an nvidia chipset for Conroe, delays perhaps?

Notice any grammar or spelling mistakes? Feel free to correct me! Thanks
Unless for benching I don't really see the need for a high-end Conroe. Maybe a dual-G80 or dual-R600 setup can really stress it, but even then I doubt that at high resolutions the Conroe will be limitting performance any time soon.
