jermaink Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Does anyone know, or has a feeling, that the next cores to superseed the Venice/San Diego/Manchester/Toledo will: 1. Still be able to run on socket 939 motherboards? 2. Have a memory controller which will properly handle 4 DIMMs running at 1T, and maintaining their latency/overclocking properties?

Frallan Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 The next cores will afaik be on the M2 sockel. That will be the rev. F Cores handling DDR2 and maybe also having the PCI-E controller on die (the last is a very vauge rumor). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snook Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 DDR2 support is still sketchy too. I hope they skip DDR2 and go with XDR or something else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frallan Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Nope DDR2 is official. :dog: Sockel M2 is DDR2 http://www.hardwareluxx.de/story.php?id=1886 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jermaink Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Does anyone rate the chance of AMD making a new core for socket 939? Or is my hope of an future upgrade of a new CPU for my NF4U-D and 2 more sticks of OCZ Gold PC 3200 (@ 1T) a bit of a pipe dream? Surely there will be new cores for the 939. I know that AMD sometimes jumps off different motherboard sockets but 939 seemed to have a bit more longevity. Maybe they'll do something gradually, as they phased out 754, but sold both A64 754's and 939's simultaneously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
