IBM is working to be the first to a 22nm chip. Will they be the first who knows, but it should bring us smaller better and faster devices. They have a hard road ahead, as 22nm will not withstand the voltages of today.

The new rage are these new ‘Netbooks’ as they have been dubbed. They are small form factor laptops that fall usually less than 10 inches and pack the power of a PC from the mid to late 90’s. There have been huge innovations in low power hardware. The technology that is making this happen is MLC Flash memory and Intel’s new Atom processor.

It seems that they had some dated northbridges to use up because the board uses 2 nForce 4 SLI northbridges and lacks a MCP or Southbridge.

Nvidia has decided to open SLI capabilities to the next generation of Intel Chipsets. The X58 will be SLI capable. Nvidia has finally opened the standard to native Intel support. They have been seemingly unwilling to open the SLI standard to other chip sets. I hope this will bring better SLI support and capabilities to Intel based boards.
