Submission + - P35 'Bearlake' Motherboard Sneak Peek
Spinnerbait writes: "HotHardware has pictures and specs on a new
Asus motherboard based on a new Intel chipset that will be formally
announced as the P35. This chipset is part of a larger family of future Intel
motherboard chips that go by the codename 'Bearlake'. The P35 is manufactured on
one of Intel's 65nm process nodes and is designed for upcoming Core 2
microprocessors that require a
1,333MHz front side bus frequency. Another major feature of the P35 is
support for DDR3 memory, although it can support DDR2 in some configurations
as well. The main advantage of DDR3 memory is that it will be able to scale to
much higher frequencies with lower voltages and better signal integrity than
DDR2."
