Upcoming Intel X38 Linux Articles

Posted by Michael Larabel on October 05, 2007

Have you had your eyes on a computer upgrade with Intel's forthcoming X38 Chipset? Over the course of the next week we will be looking at Intel's new X38 Chipset under Linux and Solaris as we look at the ASUS P5E3 Deluxe and the Gigabyte X38-DQ6 (this motherboard isn't even being announced until the 10th). Among the Intel X38 features include PCI Express 2.0, dual PCI Express x16 slots, Intel Core 2 Quad 1333MHz 45nm CPU support, and removing the overclocking protection from the motherboard. We'll tell you in these first two articles how Intel's X38 works with Linux and whether it's worth the upgrade over Intel's P35 Chipset.
