According to Intel, i875P chipset announced yesterday will become the top solution for desktop systems for about a year. The manufacturer claims that the dual-channel DDR400 SDRAM, supported by i875P, will remain the most up-to-date memory type for this time interval. It?s true, DDR I seems to be hardly able to get any faster in terms of working frequency, so that the future is definitely with DDR II. This statement is exactly the basis for Intel?s ongoing strategy in the chipset market.

Preliminary Specifications: 800MHz processor bus support; Supports CPUs designed in LGA775 package; Dual-channel DDR2-533/400 SDRAM; Dual-channel DDR400/333 SDRAM for better compatibility; Third generation integrated graphics core in Grantsdale-G; PCI Express x16 support; ICH6/RAID South Bridge with RAID support; 4 Serial ATA ports; PCI Express x1 Read the whole story over @ X-Bitlabs.
