Intel has couple of super releases later this year.One is Nehalem chip and other is X58 chipset which will not feature fsb and instead a new architecture called "quickpath" which overclockers need to investigate.Intel's new chipset X58 is considered to be major release after a while with completely changed feature set and architeture.Its said to be boosting whatever you do with your system and its designed in such a way.X58 chipset will feature same southbridge ICH10 as its predecessor P45.This chipset will support a maximum of two PCIE 2 slots running at x16 and other 2 pcie 16x lanes of pcie standard.
However Nehalem will initially come with a 20-bit wide 25.6 GB/sec.Quickpath architecture proves theoretically that it can support twice the fsb's of intel x48 chipset(1600).It will support ddr3 with 3 levels and maximum of alarming 24 gb of ram capacity.Nehalem will be available as bloomfield in 3 different clock speeds and on a new socket type "after a long while socket change" by intel LGA1366 .So everyone thinking about updating your higher end system must wait a bit long to see the horse powered and nail seized Nehalem and X58 debut.
