It was considered that the chipset series panther point, which will be coupled with 22 nm processors ivy bridge LGA 1155, it will support four ports USB 3.0 and the ability to simultaneously work with three monitors against present two. If we considers that 22 nm processors ivy bridge under specific conditions can work in the sixth series chipset, then a stimuli for the purchase of motherboards on base of chipset series panther point is almost absent.
Associates with reference to slide from intel roadmap proved that the processors ivy bridge will support PCI express 3.0, which will be used for the communication with discrete video card. It was considered that PCI express 3.0 support will propose only systems on base of chipset patsburg and processors LGA 2011.
Let us note that other devices will be satisfied by PCI express 2.0: it will support processor to four lines, chipset up to eight. The elder chipset models seventh series will support four ports USB 3.0, but here the configuration of serial ATA ports will not change: four ports will work in the regime SATA-300, and only two - in the regime SATA-600.
The graphic system of ivy bridge processors will support DirectX 11 and OpenCL 1.1, will be improved video transcoding possibilities . The memory controller will work with the dual-channel DDR 3-1600 memory, for some models the processors will be provided ECC support . On the speed level ivy bridge processors will exceed Sandy bridge by 10-20%. The announcement of platform is planned on January following year. Related Products :
