They couldn't have put "Xtreme"?

[philbrown23]

wow! kepp'em comin guys!

[vladimir]

Fudzilla is reporting that nVidia and VIA will announce a partnership this Thursday at Computex....

"Nvidia and VIA are going to announce on Thursday that from now on they will be in bed together, with a mighty goal to survive against Intel.

This marriage of convenience will be announced on Thursday and Via will tell the world that Nvidia prepares a small board based on Nforce like chipset for its Nano CPU.

This new platform should directly go after Atom, and it will be X86 compatible, which means it will be able to compete against Atom, hand by hand.

Nvidia's new platform will play HD content way better than Intel but just like Intel it is doomed to suck in gaming, but to be fair to Nvidia, it will get a bit faster than rather rusty old 945GC."

[[XC] gomeler]

I wanna goooooo! CES 2009 for sure! Must pay homage Via + Nvidia = so odd.

[[XC] hipno650]

so far then Nelahem is 45% faster clock per clock than yorksfield..... holy crap it's going to be one heck of a beast. nice pics guys! keep them coming!!

[MAS]

so far then Nelahem is 45% faster clock per clock than yorksfield

mostly due to hyperthreading (8 cores did their job)




what was Fugger doing there? Testing Bloomfield?

[massman]

In what test, Hipno?

[MAS]

massman, Vantage
it's strange you aren't aware yet

[DeathReborn]

In what test, Hipno?

3DMark Vantage: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=111

It's all there.

[massman]

massman, Vantage

Studying for exams tend to do that .

Are there exact comparising numbers? I reckon yes, 'cause saying 45% based on that screenshot only would be silly :p.

[strange|ife]

Fugger look's kinda of bored with that HSF set up

wish i could be there

[Richard Dower]

Thermaltake heatsinks look interesting: http://en.expreview.com/2008/06/03/c...rt-1/#more-420

[Monstru]

Great thread, waiting for more news and pics guys

[WhiteFireDragon]

where did all these new mobo brands come from? there's galaxy, J&W, palit, PC partner, supox, and weibu. wtf?

[Richard Dower]

Well Palit are making good graphics cards right now...maybe they are all based in Taiwan?, or India.

[Terru]

I'm studying mandarin in Taipei right now... Would so love to go to the show, but I think its closed to public, except for sat. I'm going to try to con/trick my way in as a buyer, or whatever tomrrow. See if I can meet any of the peeps on these XS boards that I have lurked for so long!
