Associate with reference to official Intel presentation asserts that the overclock experiment with unlocked processors was for Intel only a preparation for the cardinal reform of desktop processors overclocking system within the following generation, known under sandy bridge.
The chipset sixth series will include the LGA 1155 socket, the frequency of base generator will be integrated directly in the chipset, whereas earlier it was placed on the motherboard in the form of a separate microcircuit, and it independently regulates the frequencies of different bus (PCI, PCI express, USB, SATA). Now the frequencies of all buses will be attached to the base frequency, and the overclock limit on the bus will be limited by 2-3%. User will not be able also to manipulate the frequency of bus dividers.
The presence of build in chipset frequency clock generator simplify the design of the motherboard and reduce their prime cost. However, for overclocker are stored two types of processors LGA 1155: having the free multiplier (increase by 57 steps) and possessing the increased limit of increase . It is remarkable, that an increase in the multiplier will be in the latter case possible only within the technology Of turbo boost, but the limit of automatic overclock will be higher than in usual processors. There will be no model series Extreme edition LGA 1155.
With the use of chipset series Intel p6x LGA 1155 processors will open access to the operation mode DDR 3-2133 memory. The technology turbo boost will be also optimized to dynamically overclock the built-in graphic core. The latter, let us note, will be prescribed also in the four core processors generation sandy bridge, until now, Intel did not release desktop processors with this quantity of core on 32 nm technology.
Motherboard producers will for sure find a method to control the processor frequency by an external generator in order to ensure asynchronous overclock of processor and to preserve bus frequencies on the same level. In the second place, we hope that processors with the increased admittances to overclock will cost reasonable amount.
Associate reports about the preparation for the announcement of processors sandy bridge E LGA 2011, which in combination with chipset patsburg must become an adequate replacement to the present platform Intel x58. Just they will preserve the trade mark extreme edition, and they will also propose control of bus dividers frequency and official support to DDR 3-2666 memory. Naturally, components for this platform will be more expensive than LGA 1155 class. Related Products :
