According to the estimations of our associates, the support of USB3.0 Interface in Intel chipset will be inculcated not earlier than 2012. They consider that 32 nm processors sandy bridge, which will begin to be released at the end of 2010, can work with chipset Intel existing fifth series. However, this does not speak about compatibility at the motherboard level .
Products with USB 3.0 support, begin to appear at the market - as example can serve the external HDD freecom. Motherboard producer attempts to inject USB 3.0 support with the release of discrete expansion card with NEC controller as in the case with Asus production . Analogously root takes the support of SATA-600.
Associates assert that the new generation of motherboard on base of Intel p55 chipset will more actively acquire the support of SATA-600 and USB 3.0. For motherboard producers this is a good occasion to make a price increase , and to also isolate its product made of the uniform mass of analogous motherboard . Naturally, for the realization of indicated interfaces support will be used discrete controllers from strange producers.
