 |  IBM Rolls-Out Chipset to Support x86-64 Xeon Chips, Plans to Cancel Itanium Servers IBM introduced this week its new core-logic – eServer X3 architecture named Hurricane – for the Intel Xeon processors with x86-64 technology as well as the forthcoming dual-core microprocessors. But unlike the previous generations of IBM’s chipsets for Intel-based servers, the X3 does not support Intel’s Itanium and Itanium 2 processors, which could mean that IBM is reducing support of the IA64 platform. Some even believe the Big Blue is planning to reject the Itanium processors from future servers more @ http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/chipset...225034030.html
