So with the 3 different color PCIE slots would suggest 3x 16x lanes...? Would that be 3 way GPU compatible...?
I didn't know the 1155 i7's would have the HD Graphics in them but looking on wiki's "List of future Intel microprocessors"
Core i7-2600S Quad Core, 2.8 GHz, 3.8 GHz Turbo, 8 MB, HD Graphics 100, GPU Frequency: 850-1100 MHz, 65 W, LGA 1155, Release Date Q1 2011.
Core i7-2600 Quad Core, 3.4 GHz, 3.8 GHz Turbo, 8 MB, HD Graphics 200, GPU Frequency: 850-1350 MHz, 95 W, LGA 1155, Release Date Q1 2011.
Core i7-2600K Quad Core, 3.4 GHz 3.8 GHz Turbo, 8 MB, HD Graphics 200, GPU Frequency: 850-1350 MHz, 95 W, LGA 1155, Release Date Q1 2011.

But yes I agree with wraithien that it looks like a expensive year.
and with the Core i7-990X coming up to.

Find me a mobo where all the pcie x16 are different colours........... wink wink

I think we've (enthusiasts in general) given Intel far too much respect since their option to move on, in their terms, from 775.
With i3/5/7, 55/58, Intel are still only claiming somewhere around a quarter of their own socket sales to this generation. Meanwhile 775/1 still occupies around two thirds - which is massive in consideration.
(this would be total Intel shipments of their own sockets)
We had to consider, throughout the Intel wish for as all to lever away from the LGA 775, that mobos themselves, apart from chipsets, will be going through changes. Not only was their the hapless introduction of ddr3, which in tech terms goes against logic along with tri-core processing, but there was SATA3 and USB3 on the immediate horizon.
In fairness, the newer generation of the Intel offering, boast some decent tech in it's own right, and as a purchasable item where no existing items (775) were in attendance, apart from the total outlay of cash to consider, you have again a really good system.
But, in the same breathe, if you're nothing short of a professional workstation, there's not really a great point in abandoning your 3.8-4ghz 775 setup, with decent memory and atleast a single Pcie 2.0 x16 slot.
Progress ? Arguable. I can remember shooting the breeze in hard benchmarking terms with a fellow oc3der with his top of the range i7 setup and the extreme 775 I had, with crap memory I hasten to add which negates the extreme rating really. Sure the i7 could keep up and beat the 775 arrangement in many facets - but by really small comparitive amounts. Flip this to the pov of the gamer, and there's nothing in it.
Hyperthreading, multiple cores - again professionally they mean something, also with benchmarking. Other than that, if you're in posession of a really good 775 - no point.
So in Intel's defense, if I can call it that, they are left to squeeze existing socket users into adopting the new one. Eol on cpus and the promise of Pentium class replacements only is fairly scary. And yet to this day - a quarter share.
Many would have understandably skipped i3/5/7, and we have some new offerings. But how well do these compare, across the board with the legendary 775 ? I'm expecting the same comparisons. Workstation professionals - great. Gamers/internet'ers - no point unless you have to.
And of course, we'll rush out for the 67 chipset, feel nice and warm - and just like SATA3/USB3 - the breaker of the deal will be PCie 3.0.
New mobo ? Give me Pcie 3.0/full SATA3/full USB3/DDRx (QUAD channel). Perhaps next year.
Interesting.
