Special Thanks to windwithme

As Nehalem’s coming, Intel platform will transform to LGA1366 package. The first chipsets supporting LGA1366 is the upcoming X58 and Asus, Gigabyte, Foxconn, and MSI have shown up their motherboard based on the X58 chipsets and we have seen Gigabyte’s X58-EXTREME many days ago.

Our friend windwithme posted some more pics of the X58-EXTREME in our forum. Thank to him we’re able to have a further view on this small monster now.

Edit: According to Tweaktown, the final version of X58-EXTREME comes with 12 phase powering, not 6 phase as the pics show.
