Intel P45 motherboards looks unimpressive

jmke · 5th May 2008, 15:46

Taiwanese motherboard manufacturers are making a big noise about P45 motherboards, but let me give you a few details about them. The boards will launch in May with the real availability in June and onward and the only big difference compared to P35 mainstream chipset will be a support for two PCIe 2.0 graphics cards slot. Intel supports less a popular Crossfire dual-card solution that supports ATI’s graphic cards, while two Nvidia cards simply won’t work.

that it is done on a smaller process which means better clocks and less heat and still have the same low pricetag is very exciting to me

All P45 chips are really G45, with graphics silicon fused. Total die size is still larger than P35 because of this.
