ASUS P7P55D motherboard preview: Intel Core i5 ready to go @ Hexus

Come one, come all, to the next Intel chip to win them all. The Core i5 is going to be a very talked about processor soon. So what does the new P55 motherboards have to offer this new processor. Look here and see what Asus and the new P55 chipset are going to offer us.

"The chip giant could continue with the status quo, harvesting Core 2 Quad as the mid-range solution, left to compete against AMD's best, and Core i7 as high-end, but that would mean losing out on chipset revenue emanating from the introduction of new CPUs. Through a series of managed announcements, Intel has delineated plans for its CPU line-up into 2010, and it's no surprise that the underlying Nehalem architecture will be pared-down, just a touch, and bring with it a range of new Intel 5-series chipsets - P55, P57, H55, H57, Q57. etc."

Another new toy I cannot wait to play with.
