Technical features of the Intel motherboard DX79SI solution based on LGA-2011 compatible with future Intel's Sandy Bridge-E family. These platforms will debut in the segment-end enthusiast market in the fourth quarter of 2011, going to take the place of platforms based on Socket LGA 1366 Intel X58 chipset and the market for a long time.
MSI and Gigabyte showed at IDF 2011 some of its proposals based on the new socket for Core i7, their analysis allows us to highlight some basic specifications. The top models, like MSI x79-GD65 (8D) integrate up to 8 slots for DDR3 memory modules, thus allowing to extend the provision of onboard memory compared to the proposals with only 4 slots. Recall how the LGA-2011 CPU will incorporate DDR3 memory controller type quad channel, thus requiring the presence of 4 memory modules to be exploited to their maximum theoretical capabilities.
The proposals show compatibility with Gigabyte NVIDIA SLI configurations, up to a maximum of 4 cards in parallel depending on the implementation made in the specific motherboard. Dynamics similar to MSI, which however does not specify compatibility with the corresponding Cross Fire X AMD Radeon HD video cards, however we believe that this is an oversight as Cross Fire X compatibility is a technical element to this for some time on motherboards based on Intel chipests.
