I don't know how to summarize this processor other than saying that it's sex. AnandTech: The Nehalem Preview: Intel Does It Again
Quad Core with HT
Integrated Memory Controller
Triple Memory Channel
L3 Cache
Much more...

 : 70 th | | | That means new boards and chipsets coming out though. Makes the already Confusing Intel chipset market even more so (G31, G33, P35, X38, G43, G45, P45, X48) not to mention the nVidia chips.

| If you read the HardOCP link above, you'll find that Intel will not be allowing nVidia to make nForce chipsets for the new processor. So you're basically going to be stuck with Intel.
I agree with Fuzzy, though. One needs to buy each other.

| | here's very good link that previews a nehalem (X58) board: bit-tech.net | Nehalem and X58 show up in Taipei
in all honesty, this is the product I've been waiting for, and why I've pushed off building a new desktop for so long...but a lot of things are up in the air about nehalem...it's unsure when mainstream parts will arrive, which sockets will support which processors, so on and so forth...the NVIDIA chipset thing doesn't surprise me too much, as those two companies absolutely despise each other...
