Shanghai

[PwnDirect]

Think we need a dedicated Shanghai tread sadly all the attention appears to be on Nehalem so there inset much info.

"The first Shanghai model is said to operate at 2.7GHz and work within the 95W envelope. This one should be out before the end of the month"

At present I’ve only seen single paragraph pre launch reviews compared to tons of info on the Nehalem.

Am personally most interested in the new duel cores as my 4200+ oc 2.7 is really starting to become my bottleneck.

Also how many will be trading in there 9950 with sb600 for the new denebs & sb750.

So lets see what we can find on the interweb

Is there a NDA on these chips? that might be the reason for lack of info (apart from leaks and obvious fakes).

NDA all the way.

AMD are seriously keeping their cards close to their chest, hopefully they'll lay down a full house not a set of jokers.

Ill be trading in my 9950 and 600 southbridge mobo for a Deneb FX and a 750SB when it comes out

I'm going to see how my current mobo fares first, I bought it on release for £140 so want to make the most out of it.

I also hate changing motherboards, can't be bothered.

How are you finding that M3A32? I've not had a chance to clock mine at all, need a new PSU before I do anything, risking it with low power right now...

 

[EvilOne]

I cant wait for the NDA to be lifted then

It seems ok i guess, im having trouble overclocking the cpu beyond 2.92GHz though i think i have a RAM issue at the minute so dont just go buy what i say Ill also add that im new to overclocking so ive probably messed up somewhere and its not the mobos fault
