a lot of people giving opinions but what's the platform that this was tested...
So why were folks being flamed for suggesting old boards would suck with new processors? So, why bother with all of the BS about Socket Continuity? Guys, you can't have it both ways. It's either great with old boards and it's all good or its only so so and a new board is needed anyway. Ibet a new board is needed.

Rumor! A guy in Germany told me one tester is running Penryn on an i865, I told him I'd believe it when I see it. Yet, I wouldn't touch that setup with AGP, SATA1 and all of yester-year's tech. In fact, I'm already wanting to upgrade my GA-965 DS3.
