MSI Eclipse preview...
« on: October 06, 2008, 12:26:52 PM »

Sweet preview of MSI's enthusiast X58-chipset motherboard for the new Intel Corei7 CPUs.



   

I am liking it VERY much.  Probably wont upgrade to that till well into 2009.  You KNOW what the prices
of these boards and i7 CPUs will be.  Not to mention DDR3 RAM prices as well.

Interestingly enough, preliminary tests show that this platform is only 10% faster than Intel's current flagship X48 platform.
Of course, once the chipset 'matures' that will be a different story...

Nah...doh say dat.  According to this, the 2.66 GHz version should be rather 'affordable'.  The other two at $562 US and $999 US could stay right dey.
The mobo prices might START at $250 US.

sweetness of silicone.. hmm.. those prices not really that bad.. with that technology, the 2.6ghz is quite suffice. If GOD spare my life and my wallet, depending on how next year swings, this might be my upgrade.

Well what did you expect for new tech? Plus with the way things are going economy-wise, this is kinda what I would expect for a prerelease pricing scheme....that's why I giving it at least till June before considering an upgrade to the i7 platform...

Once DDR3 starts to become more available, and widely used, the price will come down.
It may only go up if there is intense demand and crippling supply.
