The world’s top maker of computer core-logic sets plans to start selling its highly-discussed Intel X48 chipset on the 4th of November, a little less than a month after mainboard makers along with system builders unveiled their desktops based on the Intel X38 chipset. Despite of expectations, the new chipset will not mean end-of-life for its predecessor and they are projected to co-exist for at least one quarter with X38 available for $50 in business quantities, whereas the X48 will cost $70, considerably more than any of Intel’s chipsets oriented at “extreme” desktops in the last five years at least.
