What's Ibex Peak, it seems, are well known. This family sets a system of logic, which are intended for use in desktop systems based on the latest processors Nehalem. So far, the Ibex Peak presented only one set of logic - X58 Smackover. But it only works with the Core i7 Bloomfield, that is the most powerful Intel processors in the architecture of Nehalem. But that should work with the Lynnfield, Havendale and other processors, Nehalem, which are categorized as mainstream, no one knows. Rather, he did not know, because Fudzilla only named such a set of system logic. This X55 and P55.
It is not clear yet what they differ from each other, but both will be run exactly in series production. It is possible that they will support even Havendale, ie the version of Nehalem, although they say that Intel reportedly will develop a special set of logic for those processors. In any case, we can say that motherboards based on the X55 and P55 will not be included among the budget.
In this connection, it is worth recalling that Intel plans to release a revised version of P45 for new models of Core 2 Duo and Quad, and the supply of these processors will continue until 2011. The idea is, Intel will release first, P55, and X55 will be presented later.
