That would make sense so I had the link speed but 1 socket would not handle it.
Why can a socket not nowadays handle more, the plug and cables are near same and fit each other.
What happens when we get Gigler ISP speeds with extra added for overheads like VM do so 1Gb/s get you at least 1Gb/s or a little higher.
Are Modems/Routers going to need 2 sockets to each PC and peeps with 1 NIC are not going to get full speed?
I just assumed as tech evolves the same looking socket will handle more like USB sockets have and current socket have from 10 to 100 to current 1000 speeds.
Intel have said about 2013-15 they will have 4Gb/s on-board NIC the same size as current ones instead of a add in cards that looks like a old GPU from 1990's, I am sure there is photos of them if you search.
