sickboy 13 Posted July 8, 2008 Wasn't Nehalem intended to be a server CPU? Unless enthusiast Bloomfield boards can take them, nevermind what I said. I was refering to it based on the architectural changes that Nehalem will bring, the desktop variant will also have those benefits, so imho a neglectable detail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echo1 0 Posted July 8, 2008 Wasn't Nehalem intended to be a server CPU? Unless enthusiast Bloomfield boards can take them, nevermind what I said. Nope, Nehalem is the codename for the architechture (it may be called Core 3 Quad/Duo unless Intel decides to have another rebranding moment). The high end desktop/single chip server core will be codenamed Bloomfield, the mainstream core Havendale. The chips for multi-CPU servers have different names and are incompatible with the above as they use a larger socket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
